Alec Benjamin – My Mother's Eyes lyrics
Verse 1:
I can't believe you love me
After all the things I've done
I think I've been the devil
Since the day that I turned one
Like when i stole your money
Just to buy a pack of gum
I know it wasn't funny
Can't believe I was so dumb
Pre-chorus:
I blame it on my age
But even now, i'm not so young
I'm still stuck in my ways
I can't believe what I've become
Somehow, you feel the same
I guess that's motherly love
Motherly love
Wish I could find the piece in me
To see the good things that you see
It's not that easy
Chorus:
But if I saw me through your eyes
Maybe I could find a way
To forgive all of the lies
And the stupid things I say
And if I could realize
That it's your blood that I bleed
Maybe I could love myself
Like the way that you love me
If I saw me through your eyes
Your eyes
Through your eyes
Through my mother's eyes
Verse 2:
I can't believe you love me
After all the things I did
Like when I said I hated you when we were in Madrid
Like when I didn't answer you cause I was on the road
But you cooked my favorite dinner for me right when I get home
Pre-chorus:
I blame it on my stress
Cause I've been feeling so high strung
I'm looking for excuses
And I know that isn't one
Somehow, you feel the same
I guess that's motherly love
Motherly love
Wish I could find the piece in me
To see the good things that you see
It's not that easy
Chorus:
But if I saw me through your eyes
Maybe I could find a way
To forgive all of the lies
And the stupid things I say
And if I could realize
That it's your blood that I bleed
Maybe I could love myself
Like the way that you love me
Outro:
If I saw me through your eyes
Your eyes
Through your eyes
Through my mother's eyes
Through my mother's eyes
Through my mother's eyes
Through my mother's eyes
But if I saw me through your eyes
Maybe I could find a way
To forgive all of the lies
And the stupid things I say
And if I could realize
That it's your blood that I bleed
Maybe I could love myself
Like the way that you love me
If I saw me through your eyes
Your eyes
Through your eyes
Through my mother's eyes
I can't believe you love me
After all the things I've done
I think I've been the devil
Since the day that I turned one
Like when i stole your money
Just to buy a pack of gum
I know it wasn't funny
Can't believe I was so dumb
Pre-chorus:
I blame it on my age
But even now, i'm not so young
I'm still stuck in my ways
I can't believe what I've become
Somehow, you feel the same
I guess that's motherly love
Motherly love
Wish I could find the piece in me
To see the good things that you see
It's not that easy
Chorus:
But if I saw me through your eyes
Maybe I could find a way
To forgive all of the lies
And the stupid things I say
And if I could realize
That it's your blood that I bleed
Maybe I could love myself
Like the way that you love me
If I saw me through your eyes
Your eyes
Through your eyes
Through my mother's eyes

Outro:
If I saw me through your eyes
Your eyes
Through your eyes
Through my mother's eyes
Through my mother's eyes
Through my mother's eyes
Through my mother's eyes
But if I saw me through your eyes
Maybe I could find a way
To forgive all of the lies
And the stupid things I say
And if I could realize
That it's your blood that I bleed
Maybe I could love myself
Like the way that you love me
If I saw me through your eyes
Your eyes
Through your eyes
Through my mother's eyes
