Bloodlines
They dug a grave deep that day
What colour were Daddy's eyes
A voice was heard to say
A life of charity was their fate
What colour were Daddy's eyes
The lad wrote on a slate
He enlisted on the rebel's side
What colour were Daddy's eyes
His final words..before he died
They buried him deep that day
What colour were Daddy's eyes..
A boy began to pray
He studied hard and long
What colour were Daddy's eyes
Became a chorus to his song
It was the source of all his fame
What colour were Daddy's eyes
Yet stayed his heartfelt refrain
Look into a mirror,true she said
Daddy & Granpa..you will see
Eyes grey-blue...love-filled for thee & me.
