The Man With the Child in His Eyes lyrics

I hear him before I go to sleep

And focus on the day that's been

I realize he's there

When I turn the light off and turn over

Nobody knows about my man

They think he's lost on some horizon

But suddenly I find myself

Listening to a man I've never known before

Telling me about the sea

All his love 'til eternity

Ooh, he's here again

The man with a child in his eyes

Ooh, he's here again

The man with a child in his eyes

He's so very understanding

And he's so aware of all my situations

And when I stay up late

He's always waiting but I feel him hesitate

Oh, I'm so worried about my man

They say, no, no, no, no, no, it won't last forever

But here I am again, my girl

Wondering what I'm doing here

Maybe he doesn't really love me

I just took a trip

Ooh, he's here again

The man with a child in his eyes

Ooh, he's here again

The man with a child in his eyes

I can hear him knocking

(Ooh, he's here again)

I can hear him knocking

(Man with a child in his eyes)

Oh, he's knocking at my front door

And he's breaking my heart

(Ooh, he's here again)

(Man with a child in his eyes)

But I love him, yes, I do

(Ooh, he's here again)

Just a man, just a man

(Man with a child in his eyes)

He's trying to do the best he can

(Ooh, he's here again)

I can hear him knocking

(Man with a child in his eyes)

And he's trying, trying to be a man, y'all

(Ooh, he's here again)

He's a child, child, child, child

(Man with a child in his eyes)
