When he looks at her lyrics. By Charlie Mitchell

When my baby started dating,
my weekends were spent waiting.
For her to get home safe,
they better not be late.
You see, I trust my daughter,
but that guy who came and got her.
Now, that was something else,
I'd have to see it for myself.

Cause when he looks at her.
Does he see what I see?
Could she ever mean as much to him
as she means to me?
Will he be the one to love her?
give her a life of her own?
Will he grow old beside her?
long after I am gone?
If I could get inside his head and see
what he sees.....
When he looks at her.

Is she just another pretty girl,
if she is, he best keep hunting.
If he don't think I'm watching him,
he just don't know nothing.
But he shakes my hand like a man;
So far he's walked the line.
But I intend on finding out,
what he has in mind.

Cause when he looks at her.
Does he see what I see?
Could she ever mean as much to him
as she means to me?
Will he be the one to love her?
give her a life of her own?
Will he grow old beside her?
long after I am gone?
If I could get inside his head and see
what he sees.....
When he looks at her.

When we go out to eat with them,
they remind me of us.
How they smile so big and seem so right
even when they fuss.
Then I caught a glimpse of his eyes,
looking into hers
And in that moment
I saw all I had to see,

Cause when he looks at her.
Does he see what I see?
Could she ever mean as much to him
as she means to me?
Will he be the one to love her?
give her a life of her own?
Will he grow old beside her?
long after I am gone?
If I could get inside his head and see
what he sees.....
When he looks at her.
