Tell me what do you see
When you look at me
Do you see the face of a fighting man?
Fighting under the rain.
Tell me what do you see
When you look at me
Do you think i can have the lover’s dream
For i know love is a holy name
And i don’t want to make it a game.
Tell me what do you see
When you look at me
Do i resemble my old man?
But i shouldn’t, cause i can’t, for i don’t have the strength
To walk among these rocky stones.
Tell me what do you see
When you look at me.
Tell me what do you see
When you call my name.
Do i look up in heaven?
Or stare across your face?
Tell me what do you see
When you look at me.
Do you see the eyes of a broken man?
Searching for the dahlia wind
To breathe and remember the scent
For i can’t cause i’ve been fighting in the rain.
Tell me what do you see
When i tell you of my dreams.
Do you see the joy
of a little boy?
Or do you see my youthful hope fading away?
Tell me what do you see
When i speak of the heavens.
Do you think i have a pious soul?
And can a broken one make a sacred heart?
Can i go up there at all?
Tell me what do you see
When you look at me.
