Lonnie Johnson - My Mother's Eyes (1967) lyrics

rate me

One bright and guiding light,

That taught me the wrong from right,

I found in my mother’s eyes.

Those baby tales she told,

All roads are paved with gold,

I found in my mother’s eyes.

Just like a wandering sparrow, one lonely soul,

I walk the straight and narrow, to reach my goal.

God’s gift sent from above,

One real, unselfish love,

I found in my mother’s eyes.

Just like a wandering sparrow, one lonely soul,

I walk the straight and narrow, just to reach my goal.

God’s gift sent from above,

One real, unselfish love,

I found in my mother’s eyes.
