Junior's Eyes

(album: The Song Remains Not The Same - 2011)

Junior's eyes looked up to the skies in tears
He prayed that his maker, the giver and taker, would 'pear
Junior sighed, as his hands reached out to the sky
Junior cried, the day that his best friend died

[Chorus:]
They're coming home again tomorrow
I'm sorry it won't be for long
With all the pain I've watched you live within
I'll try my hardest not to cry
When it is time to say goodbye

Junior's eyes, they couldn't disguise the pain
His father was leaving, and Junior's grieving again
Innocent eyes watched the man who gave everything
Junior's sorrow, knew what tomorrow would bring?

[Chorus]

Junior's eyes looked into the skies once more
Now he knew well, this life was hell for sure
He desperately tried, his fingertips retched to the stars
Reaching for reason, along with the time and the scars

[Chorus]
