I meet your mother in the doorway And you both have the same blue eyes There's a fire in her soul But the flame is low and it's burning her out And now we're walking down the hallway And we tiptoe past your room And when you climb out of bed It's just like everybody said I barely recognize you
Ooh and even though your heart beats slower And time is not your friend I gotta let you know that you've got a long way to go oh oh When you feel struck down When there's no one around When the hurt won't slow I see your mother's eyes See the flame inside And I know I'll see you tomorrow
Yeah it's okay to be afraid We're all feeling the same This isn't how it's supposed to go And now you're sitting at a table And you're smiling through the pain You're surrounded by your friends And I can't remember when I heard you laugh so freely
Ooh and even though your heart beats slowly And time is not your friend [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/in-your-mothers-eyes-lyrics-darren-hayes.html ] I gotta let you know That you've got a long way to go oh oh When you feel struck down When there's no one around When the hurt won't slow I see your mother's eyes I see the flame inside I know I'll see you
Tomorrow we can head down to Phoenix The sun is always beating Write that in your book of goals Tomorrow all the plans that you've been makin' Tell God that he's mistaken Tell the darkness to go Tell him we said NO! No! Just tell him we said no!!
(Vocalization)
Ooh and even though your heart beats slow It scares me to death 'cuz you're not like the rest And I know you'll go on I've seen it I have seen it I have seen it In your mothers eyes I've seen it in your mother's eyes I've seen it in your mother's eyes There's a flame you can't disguise I'll see you tomorrow...
