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

Touch 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 the 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 million lives
Just movin' past me by
I swear, I never thought that I was wrong
But I wanna 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 for just one second
(Lord, give me Your eyes) give me Your eyes, so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
That I keep missing (keep missing)
Give me Your heart for the broken-hearted (for the broken-hearted)
(The ones that are far beyond my reach)
Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten
Lord, give me Your eyes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
