    Story Behind the Song
    This song was inspired by the opportunity to write for the movie "Autumn in New York" where I was told that the lead character was dying. I had to go back and reach for the emotions I was feeling when my father died. I thought about how he must have felt reflecting back on his life before he passed.....I thought about the love he had shared with my mother, the joys the fears and how his world had been complete because of her. This song is for all those who can't find the words to express their love and gratitude but who want to say to that special someone that love knows no words and that the greatest love is expressed "Through their eyes"......may your "eyes" speak volumes...

    Lyrics
    Through My Eyes

    Written & produced by Leila & "Funkeeboy" (C) 2002 * Recorded by Leila
    (Verse)
    If I
    couldn’t speak a word
    my eyes, would be heard
    what a story they’d tell
    That I
    painfully waited
    while my heart faded
    until they saw you

    (Chorus)
    They’d tell of years gone by
    face marked by tears, now dry
    prayers that brought you....the only one who knew
    how I felt inside
    You......
    saw me through my eyes
    loved me through my eyes

    (Verse)
    Did I
    make my life worthwhile
    ever bring a smile
    never knew until the day
    When I
    by the heavens chosen
    to have my heart opened
    found my strength through you

    (Chorus)
    Lord, there were years gone by
    face marked by tears, now dry
    prayers that brought you...the only one who knew
    how I felt inside
    You saw me through my eyes

    (Build)
    When clarity seemed far away....you
    became the path to take

    ( Repeat Chorus)
