Windows

[Chorus: James Fauntleroy] If your eyes are the window to your soul Open eyes bring the cold If your dreams keep you warm at night Baby just keep 'em closed If your eyes are the window I can sneak in at night In your eyes, I can see your soul Staring back into mine [Verse 1: Common] She was a beautiful rose From the concrete and heat she grows In the dark room her light was exposed Her picture of men, we walk on all fours Heart opened and heart closed Every now and then she sparkles You can tell she was hurt by the words that she chose I'm thinking like Lauryn, a rose is still a rose Even when the door close, there grows a new one I told her it's some good men, she asked me if I knew one Her daddy left a hole 'cause she never really knew him Okay, sometimes from commitment, we do run Rocking Lou Vuitton, said she focused on the Christian I'm speaking to her trying to enhance her vision But not to be married with kids she was wishing Shhh, 'til your soul just listen [Chorus: James Fauntleroy] If your eyes are the window to your soul Open eyes bring the cold If your dreams keep you warm at night Baby just keep 'em closed If your eyes are the window I can sneak in at night In your eyes I can see your soul Staring back into mine [Verse 2: Common] She said "Daddy, take me ice-skating" Looking at the rear-view, life's waiting for her Gotta be there to support her Can't really wait for a court order She got the type of aura that's fun and vibrant A lot of love inside, got to help guide it Daddy will protect it, God will provide it We all will be there so your soul ain't divided Man, how quick she grows Lookin' like her mama but she got my toes I suppose it's the age that she really really need me A lot of girls without, they become needy "Come on, Dad, I'm too old for the backseat Can 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'ma coach ya"
