너무나 유명한 곡으로, 에릭 클랩톤의 my father's eyes입니다.
저는 에릭 클랩톤의 노래중 이곡을 제일 좋아하는데, 아마도 가사때문인것 같습니다.
중의적이고 시적이며, 아름답습니다.
남자들에게 아버지는 어머니와는 또 다른 존재이기도 하죠.

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 arise?
How will I know him?
When I look in my fathers eyes.
My fathers eyes.
When I look in my fathers eyes.
My fathers eyes.

Then the light begins to shine
And I hear those ancient lullabies.
And as I watch this seedling grow,
Feel my heart start to overflow.
Where do I find the words to say?
How do I teach him?
What do we play?
Bit by bit, Ive realized
That's when I need them,
That's when I need my fathers eyes.
My fathers eyes.
That's when I need my fathers eyes.
My fathers eyes.

Then the jagged edge appears
Through the distant clouds of tears.
Im like a bridge that was 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, Ive realized
That he was here with me;
I looked into my fathers eyes.
My fathers eyes.
I looked into my fathers eyes.
My fathers eyes.

My fathers eyes.
My fathers eyes.
I looked into my fathers eyes.
My fathers eyes.
