When I Open My Eyes
by Branded

Album: That's What I Do

when i close my eyes i still remember

a little girl with scratches on her knees

laying 'neath the tree in late december

after shaking every present that she sees

but, then i start to cry when i think how life

is stealing her away

-chorus-

but when i open my eyes i see this woman standing before me

almost ready to fly like an angel that's been waiting for her wings and when i look real close her innocence shows when i look into her eyes and i smile i can't forget the day when we first held her

it's the same day she stole her mothers' heart

and i know that we won't always be together

but in our hearts will never far apart and as i close my eyes and thank god for her life my little girl appears

-chorus-

-tag-

and i cry
