That taught me wrong from right
I found in my mother's eyes
Those baby tales she told
Of pathways paved with gold
I found in my mother's eyes
Just like a wandering sparrow, a lonely soul
I'd walk the straight and narrow till I reach my goal
God's gift sent from above
One true unselfish love
I found in my mother's eyes
I found in my mother's eyes
Just like a wandering sparrow, a lonely soul
I'd walk the straight and narrow till I reach my goal
God's gift sent from above
One true unselfish love
I found in my mother's eyes
I found in my mother's eye
