PAPA’   SOLDATO

Looking to my Father’s Eyes,
They were always shining & smiling.

My Father’s Eyes

Sailing down behind the sun,
waiting for my, prince to come.
Praying for, the healing rain
to restore my soul again.

Just a toerag,
on the run.
How did I get here?
What have I done?
When will all my
hopes arrive?
How will I know him?

I’d looked into my father’s eyes. ?
Looking into my Father’s Eyes
My Father’s Eyes

I’d looked into my father’s eyes. ?
Looking into my Father’s Eyes
My Father’s Eyes

Then the light, begins to shine
and I hear those ancient, lullabys.
And as I watched, this seedling grow,
feel my heart start to overflow

When will I find
the words to say?
How do I teach him?
What do we play?
Bit by bit, I’d realize
That’s when I need him,
that’s when I need my father’s eyes.

Looking into my Father’s Eyes
My Father’s Eyes

that’s when I need my father’s eyes.
Looking into my Father’s Eyes
My Father’s Eyes

My Father’s Eyes

[Were you really so far away?
Were you really so far away?
Were you really so far away?
Were you really so far away? ]

Then the jagged edge appears
through the distant clouds of tears.
I’m like a bridge that has washed away;
my foundations were made of clay.

As my soul slides, down to die.
How could I lose him? What did I try?
Bit by bit, I’d recognize
He was here with me;
I’d looked into my father’s eyes.

Looking into my Father’s Eyes
My Father’s Eyes

I’d looked into my father’s eyes.
Looking into my Father’s Eyes
My Father’s Eyes ???

As my soul slides down to die.
How could I lose him?
What did I try?
If I did, I’d recognize
He was here with me;
I’d looked into my father’s eyes.

Looking into my Father’s Eyes
My Father’s Eyes

I’m looking into my father’s eyes.
Looking into my Father’s Eyes
My Father’s Eyes

Looking into my Father’s Eyes
Looking into my Father’s Eyes

Text translated in italian

Sto veleggiando dietro il sole,
aspettando che il mio principe arrivi.
Pregando che una pioggia guaritrice
ristori nuovamente la mia anima.

Come un ragazzino in fuga.
Come sono arrivato qui?
Che cosa ho fatto?
Quando saranno tutte le mie speranze sorgere?
Come faccio a conoscerlo?
Quando guardo negli occhi di mio padre.
Gli occhi di mio padre.
Quando guardo negli occhi di mio padre.
Gli occhi di mio padre.

Poi la luce comincia a brillare
E sento quelle antiche ninna nanne.
E mentre guardo questa piantina di crescere,
Sento che il mio cuore inizia a traboccare.

Dove posso trovare le parole per dire?
Come lo insegno?
Cosa ci giochiamo?
A poco a poco, mi sono reso conto
Questo è quando ho bisogno di loro,
Questo è quando ho bisogno degli occhi di mio padre.
Gli occhi di mio padre.
Questo è quando ho bisogno degli occhi di mio padre.
Gli occhi di mio padre.

Poi appare la costa frastagliata
Attraverso le nuvole lontane di lacrime.
Io sono come un ponte che è stato spazzato via;
Le mie fondamenta erano fatte di argilla.

Mentre la mia anima scivola a morire.
Come potevo perdere?
Che cosa ho provato?
A poco a poco, mi sono reso conto
Che lui era qui con me;
Ho guardato negli occhi di mio padre.
Gli occhi di mio padre.
