Give Me Your Eyes Songtext
von Brandon Heath

Looked down from a broken sky
Traced out by the city lights
My world from a mile high
Best seat in the house tonight
Touched down on the cold black-top
Hold on for the sudden stop
Breathe in the familiar shock of confusion and chaos

All those people goin′ somewhere
Why have I never cared?

Give me Your eyes for just one second
Give me Your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missin'
Give me Your love for humanity
Give me Your arms for the broken-hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten
Give me Your eyes so I can see
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah


Step out on a busy street
See a girl and our eyes meet
Does her best to smile at me
To hide what′s underneath
There's a man just to her right
Black suit and a bright red tie
Too ashamed to tell his wife he's out of work, he′s buyin′ time

All those people goin' somewhere
Why have I never cared?

Give me Your eyes for just one second
Give me Your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me Your love for humanity
Give me Your arms for the broken-hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten
Give me Your eyes so I can see
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I′ve been there a million times
A couple of million eyes
Just movin' past me by
I swear I never thought that I was wrong
Well, I want a second glance
So, give me a second chance
To see the way You′ve seen the people all along


Give me Your eyes for just one second
Give me Your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missin'
Give me Your love for humanity
Give me Your arms for the broken-hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten
Give me Your eyes so I can see

(Give me Your eyes) give me your eyes for just one second
(Lord, give me Your eyes) give me Your eyes so I can see
(Everything) everything that I keep missin′ (that I keep missin') (keep missin')
(Give me Your heart) give me Your arms for the broken-hearted
(For the broken-hearted) the ones that are far beyond my reach
(Give me Your heart) give me Your heart for the ones forgotten
(Lord, give me Your eyes) give me Your eyes so I can see
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
