Song Lyrics
Took a drive into Brooklyn,
To see my nibbling Nicholas.
You sweet ball of sunshine
I had the chance
To see through your eyes.
You took out my strawberries
And showed me all your dinosaurs
You loved green pistachios,
I had the chance
To see through your eyes.
I got boo boos on my face
I don’t consider beautiful
You asked me what’s that
I had the chance
To see through your eyes
(You said) You got boo boos and that’s okay
You jumped up and went back to play
I felt my fears melt away
I had the chance
to see through your eyes.
I had the chance
To see through your eyes.
