Innocent Eyes

I remember the day u came in to my life
looking in your innocent eyes for the first time
holding you in my arms releasing my fears
to overwhelmed to even hear
from then on i knew you was my world
nothing else mattered when i was around you

spending days and days making faces and silly noises
not having a care in the world just watching you smile
hearing that little laughter Makes it all worthwhile
everything that id endured washed away
with you in my life i could no longer fray
holding your tiny hand in mine
the rest of the world no longer existed

then i had to leave to make it right for you
although you may not believe me its true
it was the only way i could see to make it right
to stop you every night hearing the fights
it still hurts me more than words
how i felt that day when i closed the door

and now I'm back to a place where the world is real
i no longer have your smile or big brown eyes to make me feel
i cant spend the day making you laugh just so i can hear it
but i do get a phone call to tell me you love me an miss me
for them 2 minutes nothing else matters to me
then the line goes dead and i see your not here

how sweet it is when i see you, you scream "Daddy!"
run up to me an throw your arms around my neck
we go down the town to get some shopping
you walk till your feet get tired then start stropping!
"I want to go on your shoulders daddy"
so i lift you up on to my shoulders like your caddy

the next day i take you back to mummy
and tell you how exciting its gonna be seeing mummy
i wave goodbye and smile as you walk away
as i watch my hole world go i fray
my world is gone now for another week
7 more days I'm left feeling weak
