Faces
Are my eyes blue like his? Mommy, tell me true, Do I look like him? Some people say I do.
When you look at me Do you see him within? Will I grow to look like him Outside and deep within?
Do you see his walk In every step I take? Do you hear his laughter In every sound I make?
I like to wear his boots and badge Though his hat is too big for me, Someday I’ll fill it Just you wait and see.
I know that I’ll be tall like him And my smile will be his too, I’m going to be a man like my daddy And fill his empty shoes.
I know I look like my daddy Everybody says it’s true, I guess if I want to see him A mirror will have to do.
