Name: Through a Boy's Eyes
Duration: P00H03M50S
Description: As with any more serious and personal tune... it's harder! I wanted this to be about my experience as a boy in India visiting the family home and imagining what it would be like for my big boy H to do the same. Because of travel and the serious subject, wish I had more time with this one... but a good start for something later on.

lyrics

v1
Couldn’t be much more than 5, just a few feet off the ground

Eyes are bright and shiny blue
Must not be from around here, but there’s something him
Looks like me, looks like you

All the people saying that it’s all gone to hell
I just want to run to what’s right...

chorus
Through a boy’s eyes, Seeing the world tonight
Through a boy’s eyes, I can see paradise
Through a boy’s eyes, Seeing things a different light
Through a boys eyes, I know we’re alright

v2
Look how fast the time goes by, that boy is all grown up
He’s a father now I hear
Visits are harder than ever, but I still remember
We keep in touch, and I’m so proud of him

mid 8
Sometimes it's hard to believe, I have a son of my own
I hope one day he can visit the place where my fathers from, with a son of his own
