My Mother’s Eyes

[Verse 1] I can't believe you 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 [Pre-Chorus] 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, you feel the same I guess that's motherly love Motherly love Wish I could find the piece in me To see the good things that you see It's not that easy [Chorus] 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 it's your blood that I bleed Maybe I could love myself Like the way that you love me If I saw me through your eyes Your eyes Through your eyes Through my mother's eyes [Verse 2] I can't believe you love me After all the things I did Like when I said I hated you when we were in Madrid Like when I didn't answer you cause I was on the road But you cooked my favorite dinner for me right when I get home [Pre-Chorus] I blame it on my stress Cause I've been feeling so high strung I'm looking for excuses And I know that isn't one Somehow, you feel the same I guess that's motherly love Motherly love Wish I could find the piece in me To see the good things that you see It's not that easy [Chorus] 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 it's your blood that I bleed Maybe I could love myself Like the way that you love me [Outro] If I saw me through your eyes Your eyes Through your 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 it's your blood that I bleed Maybe I could love myself Like the way that you love me If I saw me through your eyes Your eyes Through your eyes Through my mother's eyes
