Give Me Your Eyes Lyrics - Brandon Heath

Verse 1
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

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

Chorus
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

Verse 2
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 buying time

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

Chorus
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

Bridge
I've been here a million times
A couple of million eyes
Just move and pass 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

Chorus
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
