Mornings come and nights go by
Living beneath a different sky
Your picture rests beside my bed
Distance grows as years have sped
Can you feel it? The weight of time
In every chance that passed us by
Through my eyes wish you could see
All the moments that should have been
Miles apart yet you're with me
Through my eyes one day you'll see
First steps steps and school plays missed
Special days and birthday gifts
In these empty hotel rooms
A father's regret still looms
Can you hear it? The silent cries
In the echoes of our goodbyes
All the moments that should have been
Miles apart yet you're with me
Through my eyes one day you'll see
Through my eyes one day you'll see
If I could turn back the hands
Be there to hold you high
In the laughter and the tears
Close the gap of all these years
All the moments that should have been
Miles apart yet you're with me
Through my eyes one day you'll see
Through my eyes one day you'll see
If I could turn back the hands
Be there to hold you high
In the laughter and the tears
Close the gap of all these years
All the moments that should have been
Miles apart yet you're with me
Through my eyes one day you'll see
Through my eyes one day you'll see
