The Eyes Of A Friend
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I live a good life I'm told
I ride with peace in my soul
Seen the sun rise through high western pines
And watched their manes turn into gold.
I've heard the call of the wild
Seen mountains for hundreds of miles
Felt the snow fall and smelled the spring thaw
Spent time on my own for awhile.
Now just before me I see
A place that I never have been
My mountains just seem to grow small
Compared to the love in your hand
But all of God's beauty my hopes and my dreams
I found in the eyes of a friend.
I left with my heart on the run
Came back the prodigal son
Only to find that the woman in mind
Was sent to me straight from above.
How could you know for so long
Why did you come back to me
What did I do to deserve
A story book story it seems
But all of the questions were answered just when
I looked in the eyes of a friend
So today I choose a new life
And I promise to you my bride
My love and my faith till the end of our time
Devoted to stand by your side.
You'll never have reasons to fear
We only have life to begin
Things that we hold so dear
Will give us a means to an end
When we're old and we're tired and time is all spent
We'll rest in the eyes of a friend.
