Ask Embla Fathers Eyes
[Verse 1]
I could paint a picture of my heart
Hang it on a wall and watch the colours fade away
Tell the world that we have been a lie all this time we've spent
I could tell myself that I have done all that I could do
If that would take the pain away
Tell the world we lost it, baby, I, I'm not done here yet
[Chorus]
I know that people think our love is like a fantasy
I know that no one seems to understand what I see but I
I see with my Father's eyes, I see with my Father's eyes
[Verse 2]
You were like a fire and I've tried
Risking all I am to let you go and kill the flames
Oh, a heart can burn so many times, I am proof of that
And I could paint a picture of your heart
Hang it on a wall and I would never walk away
I would stand there asking myself why I'm not broken yet
[Chorus]
I know that people think our love is like a fantasy
I know that no one seems to understand what I see when I
I see with my Father's eyes, I see with my Father's eyes
I know that everybody says you've not been good to me
They just don't realise I'm nothing if I set you free
I see with my Father's eyes, I see with my Father's eyes
[Bridge]
Oh, I have my humanity, and I know why
Lost in my sanity cause I, think that I could learn to fly
I see it in my Father's eyes
Oh I have my humanity and I know why
Lost in my sanity cause I, think that I could learn to fly
I see it in my Father's eyes
[Chorus]
I know that people think our love is like a fantasy
I know that no one seems to understand what I see when I
I see with my Father's eyes, I see with my Father's eyes
I know that everybody says you've not been good to me
They just don't realise I'm nothing if I set you free
I see with my Father's eyes, I see with my Father's eyes
