My mother's eye

One bright and guiding light
That taught me wrong from right
I found in my mother's eyes.
Those baby tales, those baby tales she told
That the roads are paved with gold
I found in my mother's eyes
Just like a wandering sparrow
One lonely soul
I'm walking on, I'm walking on the straight and narrow
To reach, to reach, reach my goal
God's gift, God's gifts sent down from above
A real unselfish love
I found it in my mother's eyes.
