Sad Eyes lyrics

There's a girl inside A window of your woman's eyes Looking for a lover when you needed me most But a lover you didn't find Cold and far away Do you still feel my breath on your face You can't make sense of the space between And I can't make it go away Sad eyes on her mother's side, she's got Sad eyes let down too many times, those Sad eyes will never grow old There's a boy inside Lost in the mile long stare Still helpless and innocent That your heart needed to protect Made to understand What it means to be a man Daddy said, I'll give you something to cry about And a lesson that you'll never forget Sad eyes on his Daddy's side, he's got Sad eyes like a desert dry Sad eyes are not his own, he's got Sad eyes like a begging bowl, those Sad eyes will never grow old
