 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Back in childhood days, 
I can remember loving caresses showered on me.
Mother's eyes would gaze at me so tender, 
What was their meaning? Now I can see.

One bright and guiding light, 
That taught me wrong from right,
I found in my mother's eyes.
Those baby tales she told,
That road all paved in gold,
I found in my mother's eyes.

Just like a wandering sparrow,
One lonely soul.
I walked the straight and narrow,
To reach my goal.
God's gift sent from above,
A real unselfish love,
I found in my mother's eyes.

When I'm all alone, no one around me, 
I find the future dark as can be.
Sorrows I have known, always surround me, 
Then through the shadows, I always see.

One bright and guiding light, 
That taught me wrong from right,
I found in my mother's eyes.
Those baby tales she told,
That road all paved in gold,
I found in my mother's eyes.

Just like a wandering sparrow,
One lonely soul.
I walked the straight and narrow,
To reach my goal.
God's gift sent from above,
A real unselfish love,
I found in my mother's eyes.
