Lyrics

Look down from a bro ken sky, traced out by the cit y lights.

My world from a mile high, best seat in the house to night.

Touch down on the cold black top, hold on for the sud den stop, breathe in the fa mil iar shock of con (D)fu sion and cha os.

(Em)All those peo ple go ing some where.

Why have I nev er cared?

Give me Your eyes for just one sec ond, give me Your eyes so I can see ev er y thing that I keep miss ing.

Give me Your love for hu man i ty.

Give me Your arms for the bro ken heart ed, the ones that are far be yond my reach.

Give me Your heart for the ones for got ten, give me Your eyes so I can see.

Yeah,

yeah,

yeah.

Step out on a bus y street, see a girl and our eyes meet.

Does her best to smile at me to (D)hide what’s un der neath.

There’s a man just to her right, black suit and a bright red tie, too a shamed to tell his wife he’s (D)out of work; he’s buy ing time.

(Em)All those peo ple go ing some where.

Why have I nev er cared?

Give me Your eyes

I’ve been here a mil lion times; a cou ple of mil lion eyes just move and pass me by.

I swear I nev er thought that (Dsus)I was wrong.

Well, I want a sec ond glance, so give me a sec ond chance to see the way You’ve seen the peo (G)ple all a long.

Give me Your eyes for just one sec ond, give me Your eyes so I can see ev er y thing that I keep miss ing.

Give me Your love for hu man i ty.

Give me Your arms for the bro ken heart ed, the ones that are far be yond my reach.

Give me Your heart for the ones for got ten, give me Your eyes so I can see.

Give me Your eyes for just one sec ond, give me Your eyes so I can see ev er y thing that I keep miss ing.

Give me Your love for hu man i ty.

Give me Your arms for the bro ken heart ed, the ones that are far be yond my reach.

Give me Your heart for the ones for got ten, give me Your eyes so I can see.
