Her Momma’s Eyes

Words and Music By Jordan Hayworth 2005

Chord Progression: Am G F G ( Throughout the whole song)

Chorus

Am G

Your Momma’s eyes still make me cry

F G

I look at them as the day goes by

Am G

They remind me of a woman I loved then

F G Am

A woman I will never see again

Verse

Well I remember I was seventeen

You had the prettiest eyes I’d ever seen

We went out on a date then back to your home

That’s when your parents met your future groom

I looked at your folks and then I realized

You had your momma’s eyes

Verse

But your momma didn’t see you walk down the isle

The Lord took her one day in July

But as I stood there to give my vows

I said to in front of the crowd

I’ll marry you, girl don’t cry

I said this looking in your momma’s eyes

Chorus

Your Momma’s eyes still make me cry

I look at them as the day goes by

They remind me of a woman I loved then

A woman I will never see again

Verse

When she told me the news it was late at night

I’ll never forget the look in her eyes

Those pearls of green mixed with blue

There aint another like them there are only two

She said honey we’re gonna have a child

We made love…that night was wild

Verse

Nine months later at a table for two

I seen a look in those eyes of blue

She baby its time to go

But the baby wasn’t ready she was taking it slow

And on the way something went wrong

Those pretty blue eyes were closed too long

Chorus

Your Momma’s eyes still make me cry

I look at them as the day goes by

They remind me of a woman I loved then

A woman I will never see again

Verse

I took me a while to understand why

A mother had to die to save the child

But the baby was sleeping as I was weeping

I went to the crib and as I did

She woke up and I cried

She had her momma’s eyes

Chorus

Your Momma’s eyes still make me cry

I look at them as the day goes by

They remind me of a woman I loved then

A woman I will never see again

That’s it tell me what you think
