homepage: MARTINA MCBRIDE'S In My Daughter's Eyes

Monday, September 10, 2007 - 03:25 AM

I have been fortunate to hear my favorite song by Martina McBride three times in the last week randomly played on the radio. (My inner self wavelengths must be intercepting the radiowaves.) This song is beautiful, I wish I could insert the actual link for you to hear it, but I can't. So I type the words and leave a YouTube address for you to copy and paste into your browser and visit on your own if you've never had the privilige of hearing the emotional words put to beautiful music, plus you get the extra bonus of seeing the gorgeous Martina sing it. When I hear this song, I think of course of my own children, but a few special friends with a daughter or two come to mind as well. So this posting is for them:

Martina McBride - In My Daughter's Eyes Lyrics

In my daughter's eyes I am a hero
I am strong and wise and I know no fear
But the truth is plain to see
She was sent to rescue me
I see who I wanna be
In my daughter's eyes

In my daughter's eyes everyone is equal
Darkness turns to light and the
world is at peace
This miracle God gave to me gives me
strength when I am weak
I find reason to believe
In my daughter's eyes

And when she wraps her hand
around my finger
Oh it puts a smile in my heart
Everything becomes a little clearer
I realize what life is all about

It's hangin' on when your heart
has had enough
It's giving more when you feel like giving up
I've seen the light
It's in my daugter's eyes

In my daughter's eyes I can see the future
A reflection of who I am and what will be
Though she'll grow and someday leave
Maybe raise a family
When I'm gone I hope you see how happy
she made me
For I'll be there
In my daughter's eyes
