Hero in Your Eyes

When you look up at your daddy

Do you see a man who tries

A man who stands for all that's right

And won't ever tell you lies

Do you see a man okay with

Saying how much he loves you

Who's not afraid to ask the Good Lord

For things that he could never do

I see that look in your little eyes

Watching my every single move

And I know that you'll learn more from me

Than you ever did at school

I'll do my best to teach you right from wrong

And you'll never have to walk alone

Like brightest star up in that Georgia sky

I wanna be the hero in your eyes

Doing right ain't always easy

Sometimes it hurts and that's okay

Cuz when you lay your head down to sleep at night

You'll know you did things the right way

I could write a hundred # 1's

Or be the president someday

None of that would mean a thing

If you didn't look at me this way

More than anything there is in this whole life

I wanna be the hero in your eyes
