Hey guys, another cover.
Just thought I'd like to play this song, so I recorded it as well. This song's pretty cool, I like its meaning too,especially at a time like this right now.
Anyway, here are the lyrics below.

LYRICS:
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?

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?

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

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

Enjoy!

Oh, and by the way, just in case any of you are wondering, I transposed the song to fit my singing range. And if enough people request, I'd love to do a short tutorial on this song - it's not too hard.

  • great job man!

  • well done!

  • That sounds good.. I'd like to see it sky view so I can figure out what you're playing so i can mimic

  • Great :D

  • wow that was very impressive! Brandon heath has a new song called your love and it would be awesome if you coud sing and play your love, although it may difficult to get the sound from piano only which I would love to hear as well as your singing. Not sure how you play a tune for a song without music sheets but by ear? many are so talented! I know you could pull it off? waiting for your version.....
