reflection (c.t.- 2003)

i wish i could tell you i dreamed about you last night
but it was more like something from about a year ago
and i woke up wondering about the man i've become
and i realized the difference lies between the things i've said
and the things i've done

if i live to see myself in the eyes of my children
i hope to see the man my father saw when he looked at me

sometimes i can't figure out how i made it this far
and other times how i got so far astray
but everytime i fall down i've got to fight to get back up
and i know, and i know,  and i know
that life is just a wicked, silly game

if i live to see myself in the eyes of my children
i hope to see the man my father saw when he looked at me
