His eyes were brown just like his Daddy's
Skin like caramel, dark and smooth
He broke my heart the day he left me
There ain't no tellin' what I'll do

I fell in love before I knew him
Before I held him in my arms
I thought he'd be forever with me
I never thought hope could do such harm

His eyes were brown just like his Daddy's
Skin like caramel, dark and smooth
He broke my heart the day he left me
A little boy gone, way too soon
