Common - Windows Lyrics
If your eyes are the window to your soulOpen eyes when you're coldIf your dreams keep you warm in nightBaby just keep 'em closedIf your eyes are the windowI can sneak in at nightIn your eyes I can see your soulStaring back into mineShe was a beautiful roseFrom the concrete and heat she growsIn the dark room her life was exposedHer picture of men, we walk on all foursHeart opened and heart closedEvery now and then she SparklesYou can tell she was hurt by the words that she choseI'm thinking like Lauryn, a rose is still a roseEven when the door close, there grows a new oneI told her it's some good men, she asked me if I knew oneHer daddy left a hole because she never really knew himOk sometimes from commitment, we do themRocking Lou Vuitton, said she focused on the ChristianI'm speaking to her trying to enhance her visionBut not to be married with kids she was wishingShhh, 'til your soul just listenShe said daddy take me ice-skatingLooking at the rear-view, life's waiting for herGotta be there to support herCan't really wait for a court orderShe got the type of aura that's fun and vibrantA lot of love inside, got to help guide itDaddy will protect it, God will provide itWe all will be there so your soul ain't dividedMan, how quick she growsLooking like her momma but she got my toesI suppose it's the age that she really really need meA lot of girls without, they become needy"C'mon dad, I'm too old for the back seatCan you come and get me, are you coming to my track meet?"As she begins the race of life and love I told her"I can't run it for ya, but God know's I'mma coach ya"
