Behind These Eyes of Blue
Behind those Eyes of Blue , he sees his brand new baby girl open her eyes for the first time; matching blue eyes staring back at him. Behind these Eyes of Blue , she looks up to see her daddy; the first man she’d ever love. Behind those Eyes of Blue , he sees the light of his life taking her first steps. Behind these Eyes of Blue , she sees her lifeline and protector if she ever falls. Behind those Eyes of Blue , he sees a scraped knee and a failed bike lesson. Behind these Eyes of Blue , she sees her guardian angel coming to save the day, with those gentle but calloused hands, brushing the gravel from her small knee. Behind those Eyes of Blue , he sees a little girl terrified of things only she can see, as he rocks her back to sleep from another night terror. Behind these Eyes of Blue , she sees the man who hung her moon, her knight in shining armor, as she closes her eyes; knowing he’d slay anything that ever tried to hurt
