Give Me Your Eyes
look down from a broken sky
traced out by the city lights
my worlds a mile high
best seat in the house tonight
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 fo r the broken hearted
the ones that are far beyond my reach
give me your heart for the ones forgottengive me your eyes so I can see
step out on a busy street
see a girl and our eyes meet
does the best to smile at me
to hide whats underneath
there's a man just who arrived
black suit and a bright red tie
to ashamed to tell his wife
he's outta work, he's buying time
all those people going somewhere
why have I never cared
Slow down and think of your heart
Where do you go?
Now how am I supposed to know
I'm always looking away
Give me your eyes
So I can see me straight
Give me your eyes
I can't tell night from day
Oh, mirror mirror upon the wall
Who is the fairest of them all?
Mirror mirror made no reply
Mirror went black and cracked
From side to side
Oh girl, look at yourself
What have you done?
What have you become
You know the camera don't lie
Give me your eyes
So I can see me straight
Give me your eyes
I can't tell night from day
Give me your eyes
So I can see me straight
Give me your eyes
And watch me walk away
Give me your eyes
Give me your eyes
yeah, yeah
yeah, yeah
traced out by the city lights
