pedrito martinez - my father's eyes lyrics

[verse 1: pedrito martinez]
sailing down behind the sun
waiting for my prince to come
praying for the healing rain
to restore my soul again

[pre+chorus: eric clapton]
just a toerag on the run
how did i get here?
what have i done?
when will all my hopes arise?
and how will i know him?
when i look in my father’s eyes

[chorus: chorus, eric clapton]
(look into my father’s eyes)
my father’s eyes
when i look in my father’s eyes
(look into my father’s eyes)
my father’s eyes

[verse 2: eric clapton]
and then the light begins to shine
i hear those ancient lullabies
and as i watch this seedling grow
feel my heart start to overflow
[pre+chorus: pedrito martinez]
where do i find the words to say?
how do i teach him?
what do we play?
bit by bit, i’ve realized
that’s when i need them
that’s when i need my father’s eyes

[chorus: pedrito martinez, eric clapton, chorus]
(look into my father’s eyes)
my father’s eyes
that’s when i need my father’s eyes
(look into my father’s eyes)
my father’s eyes

[instrumental bridge]

[verse 3: pedrito martinez, eric clapton, both]
then the jagged edge appears
through the distant clouds of tears
i’m like a bridge that was washed away
my foundations were made of clay

[pre+chorus: eric clapton]
as my soul slides down to die
how could i lose him?
what did i try?
bit by bit, i’ve realized
that he was here with me
[chorus: pedrito martinez, eric clapton, chorus]
i looked into my father’s eyes
(looked into my father’s eyes)
my father’s eyes
i looked into my father’s eyes
(looked into my father’s eyes)
my father’s eyes
i looked into my father’s eyes
(looked into my father’s eyes)
my father’s eyes
i looked into my father’s eyes
(looked into my father’s eyes)
my father’s eyes
i looked into my father’s eyes

[instrumental outro]
