| Back in childhood days,
|
| I can remember loving caresses showered on me.
|
| Mother’s eyes would gaze at me so tender,
|
| What was their meaning? |
| Now I can see.
|
| One bright and guiding light,
|
| That taught me wrong from right,
|
| I found in my mother’s eyes.
|
| Those baby tales she told,
|
| That road all paved in gold,
|
| I found in my mother’s eyes.
|
| Just like a wandering sparrow,
|
| One lonely soul.
|
| I walked the straight and narrow,
|
| To reach my goal.
|
| God’s gift sent from above,
|
| A real unselfish love,
|
| I found in my mother’s eyes.
|
| When I’m all alone, no one around me,
|
| I find the future dark as can be.
|
| Sorrows I have known, always surround me,
|
| Then through the shadows, I always see.
|
| One bright and guiding light,
|
| That taught me wrong from right,
|
| I found in my mother’s eyes.
|
| Those baby tales she told,
|
| That road all paved in gold,
|
| I found in my mother’s eyes.
|
| Just like a wandering sparrow,
|
| One lonely soul.
|
| I walked the straight and narrow,
|
| To reach my goal.
|
| God’s gift sent from above,
|
| A real unselfish love,
|
| I found in my mother’s eyes. |
