"Through Your Eyes" lyrics - MORGAN WADE

The scariest thing I ever heard
Was a three-year-old mouth the words
"I want to be like you, someday"
It got me to thinking that maybe I should change my ways

I'm watching every line
Because they love to memorize
Every word, I say
Maybe I should change the songs I sing

[Chorus:]
Oh, the innocence of a child
Never afraid to let their thoughts run wild
I wish I could be that kind
I wish I could see the world through your eyes

Oh, that child-like faith
The kind that no one should take away
I think I had, it once before
Got me to thinking that maybe I should pray a little more

[Chorus:]
Oh, the innocence of a child
Never afraid to let their thoughts run wild
I wish I could be that kind
I wish I could see the world through your eyes
I wish I could see the world through your eyes

It's a phone call when I'm alone
Asking me when I'll come back home
When they're gonna see me again
Got me to thinking I should spend more time with them

[Chorus:]
Oh, the innocence of a child
Never ashamed to let their thoughts run wild
I wish I could be that kind
I wish I could see the world through your eyes
I wish I could see the world through your eyes

[Outro:]
The scariest thing I ever heard
Was a three-year-old mouth the words
"I want to be like you, someday"
It got me to thinking that maybe I should change my ways
