In the eyes of one man
you can see the lives of us all
happiness, sadness, strength and pride
magnificent peaks, deep valleys
The eyes of one man
tell the story of life
so many people, so many stories
and yet in many ways identical
In the eyes of one man
you can see the power we all have within
to overcome what needs to be overcome
to live with what we’re given
And how proud you are
when once again magnificient peaks are in sight
Those eyes of that one man
show the strength of the whole world
