Mark Wills - What She Sees In Me lyrics

rate me

Thirty-one and six foot even,

She still looks at me and sees

Her wide eyed boy, six years old

Reachin' for her hand to hold.

She still tells me, "Wipe your feet son,

Wash your hands, it's time to eat". Yeah.

She believes she's heaven sent

To protect my long lost innocence.

What she sees in me,

Is nothing but the best.

In her eyes I'll never be

Anything less.

It's a love strong enough to forgive the rest.

If only I could always be

What she sees in me.

This ain't the paradise I promised her;

It's just a slice of life with an average man:

Honest work with calloused hands.

And it bothers me I can't deliver

All the things I swore I'd give her.

She looks into my eyes

Like life with me is some kind of prize.

What she sees in me,

Is nothing but the best.

In her eyes I'll never be

Anything less.

It's a love strong enough to forgive the rest.

If only I could always be

What she sees in me.

Three years old and two foot four,

Each day when I walk through the door

She runs to me and holds me tight,

And in her eyes there shines a light

That reaches to the deepest part

Of all that's good inside my heart.

The places that are kind and true,

And I know I must live up to:

What she sees in me,

Is nothing but the best.

In her eyes I'll never be

Anything less.

It's a love strong enough to forgive the rest.

If only I could always be

What she sees in me.
