What She Sees In 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" 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 But 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 --- What She Sees in Me - Mark Wills
