My Father S Eyes (take 1) Lyrics - Unplugged: Expanded & Remastered - Eric Clapton

Sailing down behind the sun, 

Waiting for my prince to come. 

Praying for the healing rain 

To restore my soul again. 

Just a toerag on the run. 

How did I get here? 

What have I done? 

When will all my hopes arise? 

How will I know him? 

When I look in my father's eyes. 

(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.

Then the light begins to shine 

And I hear those ancient lullabies. 

And as I watch this seedling grow, 

Feel my heart start to overflow. 

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. 

(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.

Then the jagged edge appears 

Through the distant clouds of tears. 

I'm like a that was washed away; 

My foundations were made of clay. 

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; 

I looked into my father's eyes. 

(Look into my father's eyes) 

My father's eyes. 

I looked into my father's eyes. 

(Look into my father's eyes) 

My father's eyes. 

My father's eyes. 

(Look into my father's eyes) 

My father's eyes. 

I looked into my father's eyes. 

(Look into my father's eyes) 

My father's eyes.
