Lyrics
Rachel's Eyes
Verse 1
Rachel's eyes dance with the light of heaven
Rachel's eyes can melt a heart of stone
In Rachel's eyes I see life has more meaning
In Rachel's eyes I find my way back home
Pre Chorus
Eyes, that pierce right through me
A glance, that hits so deeply
The look, that says that everything's all right
Chorus
I see forever, In the shine of her eyes
A distant reflector, The light testifies
Show me the way that I can see
Through Rachel's eyes
Verse 2
Rachel's eyes are lookin past this moment
Rachel's eyes are hopin, what will be
In Rachel's eyes I see life has more meaning
In Rachel's eyes I find the strength to believe
Pre Chorus
Eyes, that pierce right through me
A glance, that hits so deeply
The look, that says that everything's all right
Chorus
I see forever, In the shine of her eyes
A distant reflector, the light testifies
Show me the way that I can see
Through Rachel's eyes
Bridge
Seems just yesterday there were pony-tails & baby dolls
But they got traded in for cell phones & shopping malls
Now I see a prom dress, a college application
I'm sure it wont be long till there's a wedding invitation
Flute Solo
Chorus (Same W/Tag)
