His Eyes Are Sad

Little boy sitting on the front porch, waiting for daddy to come home
He doesn't realize that daddy's gone
He remembers the words they had, they echo through the walls
He remembers his daddy's eyes were sad

As daddy left the house, got into his truck
And drove away, on down the street
Looking back, his eyes were sad

His life's been a hard lesson to learn, he's does the very best he can
But he can't keep daddy off his mind
And as he grows into a young man, he hopes that he'll get the chance
To see his daddy with a smile in his eyes

As he leaves the house, gets into his truck
And drives away, on down the street
Looking around, his eyes are sad

And he knows his daddy's out there somewhere
He just has to find him so he can smile again
He knows his daddy is somewhere, he had to keep looking, looking
Looking around, his eyes are sad

Now his little boy sits on the porch, waiting for daddy to come home
He doesn't realize that daddy's gone
He remembers the words they had, they echo through the walls
He remembers his daddy's eyes were sad

As his daddy left the house, got into his truck
And drove away, on down the street
Looking back, his eyes were sad

And he knows his daddy's out there somewhere
He's just waiting for is daddy to come home
He knows his daddy is somewhere, he has to keep waiting, waiting
Looking from the porch, his eyes are sad
