mercedes lackey - her father's eyes lyrics
how tenuous the boundary between love and pain
how easy to mistake the first and learn the truth too
late
how hard to bear what brings to mind mistakes that we
despise
and when i look into her face, i see her father’s eyes
he tried to steel away my throne he tried to rule my life
and i’m not made to forgive a cowed and cowered wife
my love became my enemy who sought his queen’s demise
and when i look into her face, i see her father’s eyes
poor child, we battled over her as two dogs with a bone
and i should not see his treachery in temper tantrums
thrown
i should not see betrayal when there’s not but childish
lies
but when i look into her face, i see her father’s eyes
now how am i to deal with this rebellion in my soul
i cannot treat her fairly when my own heart is not whole
i truly wish to love her but i’m not so strong or wise
and when i look into her face, i see her father’s eyes
only her father’s eyes
