Harry Connick Jr. - Eyes Of The Seeker lyrics

I remember what my father said

He said "You don't slow down

You're gonna end up dead"

I remember what my brother said

He said "You're runnin blind

Like a bird flyin into the sun"... yeah

They might be older than me

But the eyes of the seeker

Are the ones that see

Old man with a new brown bag

Washed away his home

Hung over the nag

Threw the ring in the river

At the end of the street

Then he laid on down in the park

With the bag at his feet... yeah

He might think he's really free

But the eyes of the seeker

Are the ones that see

All... all ya'll

Try to push it further

Than you think your life is worth

Or you'll get nowhere

Spendin all your time with the devil

Grind... Your mind

'Stead of sittin home

Lyin in your bed

Sayin you just don't care... well...

Big Daddy from the back of the cell

Said "You wanna last

You gotta run like hell"

But Big Daddy must been runnin slow

He told me the view's real good

From the top of the row... yeah

It's overcase with an ill decree

And the eyes of the seeker

Are the ones that see
