In the eyes of a child

But time would prove any'thing could change

Cus'he was 2 old fashioned

When I was 16

As my buddies an me

But the only friend
FF C majorC

G+G C majorC
Got called home just shy of 63

FF
Now the man in the mirror
E minorEm
Looks so familiar
DmDm C majorC
He's wearin that same crooked smile

Same lines of worry

Kids growin up to early
DmDm G+G

To the man in the mirror

Now I realize

His strong hands of justice

Would end with a hug
He knew nothing was stronger

Than the power of love

I can truthfully say

That I know how he felt

Cus just the other night

When my son needed help

With the one piece left
He looked at me in a way
