• Give Me Your Eyes

  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
  Breath in the familiar shock
  Of confusion and chaos
  All those people going 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 missing
  Give me your love for humanity
  Give me your arms for the broken hearted
  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 buying time
  All those people going 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 missing
  Give me your love for humanity
  Give me your arms for the broken hearted
  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 moving 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 see the people all along

  Chorus (x2)
  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
  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
