My Mother's Eyes
Alec Benjamin
I can't believe u 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
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 u feel the same I guess it's motherly love
Motherly love
Wish I could find a piece of me
To see the good things that u see
It's not that easy
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's your blood that I bleed
Maybe I could love myself
Like the way that u love me
If I saw me through your eyes
Your eyes
Through your eyes
Through my mother's eyes
I can't believe u love me after all the things I did
Like when I said I hated u when we were in Madrid
Like when I didn't answer u 'coz I was on the road
But u cooked my fave dinner for me right when I get home
I blame it on my stress 'coz I've been feeling so high strung
I'm looking for excuses and I know that isn't one
Somehow u feel the same I guess it's motherly love
Motherly love
Wish I could find a piece of me
To see the good things that u see
It's not that easy
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's your blood that I bleed
Maybe I could love myself
Like the way that u love me
If I saw me through your eyes
Your eyes
Through you 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's your blood that I bleed
Maybe I could love myself
Like the way that u love me
If I saw me through your eyes
Your eyes
Through you eyes
Through my mother's eyes
