Daddy’s Eyes

Verse 1
In a house out in the country lived a man and his wife
And I was their little girl just so in love with life
The world had not yet had a chance to cut me down to size
And I was still a princess in my daddy’s eyes

Chorus
In daddy’s eyes
In daddy’s eyes, I could dance and I could sing
In daddy’s eyes, I was the very voice of spring
In daddy’s eyes, I was everything, yes everything
And I wish that you could see me
Through my daddy’s eyes

Verse 2
When the sun would touch the tree tops with evening in the air
I’d be setting on the front porch in our old rocking chair
I knew that he would soon be home before the daylight died
And I couldn’t wait to see the light in my daddy’s eyes

Repeat Chorus
In daddy’s eyes
In daddy’s eyes, I could dance and I could sing
In daddy’s eyes, I was the very voice of spring
In daddy’s eyes, I was everything, yes everything
And I wish that you could see me
Through my daddy’s eyes

Bridge
Years go by, and times they change
The world turns round and round
And dreams are rearranged

Verse 3
In a house out in the country when I became a wife
God gave us a little girl she’s so in love with life
The world has not yet had a chance to cut her down to size
And she is still a princess in her daddy’s eyes

Last Chorus
In daddy’s eyes
In daddy’s eyes, she can dance and she can sing
In daddy’s eyes, she’s the very voice of spring
In daddy’s eyes, she’s everything, yes everything
And I wish that you could see her through her daddy’s eyes
I wish the world could always see her
Through her daddy’s eyes.
