What she sees in me is nothing but the best
In her eyes I'll never be anything less
And it bothers me I can't deliver all the things I swore I'd give her
If only I could always be what she sees in me
She still tells me, "Wipe your feet son, wash your hands, it's time to eat"
She believes she's heaven-sent to protect my long lost innocence
She runs to me and holds me tight and in her eyes there shines a light
But she looks into my eyes like life with me is some kind of prize
Three years old and two foot four each day when I walk through the door
It's a love strong enough to forgive the rest
What she sees in me is nothing but the best
This ain't the paradise I promised her it's just a slice of life
In her eyes I'll never be anything less
It's a love strong enough to forgive the rest
If only I could always be what she sees in me
In her eyes I'll never be anything less
With an average man honest work with calloused hands
It's a love strong enough to forgive the rest
The places that are kind and true and I know I must live up to
What she sees in me is nothing but the best
That reaches to the deepest part of all that's good inside my heart
