Music Monday ~ Give Me Your Eyes


Happy Music Monday!

 Thanks for bearing with my erratic Music Monday posting.  With the summer slipping by I never know what I am doing from day to day, and before I know it, it will be time to buckle down and get back on a schedule - ugh!  I am enjoying the lazy days of the season a bit too much I fear!

Today I am sharing yet another my favorite songs.  Give Me Your Eyes, by Brandon Heath, is sure to become a favorite of yours as well, if it isn't already!



Look 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 going 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 you 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
 
Chorus

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
I want a second glance
So give me a second chance
To see the way you’ve seen the people all along

Chorus
