Romanovsky & Phillips When I Look Into Your Eyes
(Originally titled "Getting Past the Anger," this song was begun 10 years ago, but never sung... until the anger faded. An attempt to close the generation gap.) When I look into your eyes I don't see any tears I know they must be wise To be living all these years Your heart is full of love But you don't know what to say How did you show your feelings Back in your day? How did you love each other? What secrets did you share? Your eyes are soft and gentle But your words don't seem to care I would not criticize The way you brought me up But what was on your mind The night you thought me up? Your heart is full of kindness I can see it every day Why do you choose to hide it When I say... I know you did the best you could You did everything a mother should Now you tell me that you care for me In birthday greeting rhymes But I'd like to hear it from your lips Just one time 'Cause I want to understand I want to make amends Why must a generation Put these miles between two friends?
