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.
My father\\'s eyes.
I looked into my father\\'s eyes.
My father\\'s eyes.

My father\\'s eyes.
My father\\'s eyes.
I looked into my father\\'s eyes.
My father\\'s eyes.
