Can you spare some change
Is what I heard him say
At the light
So I dug thru my ashtray
My good deed today
Changed my life
I thought I knew it all
Quick to right him off
Looked like he was lost
Until I heard him speak now
I've heard that voice before
Knew that it was yours
He said you loved me more
than I even believed
People judge from what they see
But lord you see the heart
If we had your eyes
Then we'd see things right
If we could just see
From your point of view
Then most things won't be as they seem
If we had your eyes
I had the perfect day
Is what she says to me
All the time
She's so beautiful
Nothings ever wrong
In her life
Yeah that's what I thought
Until I saw the scars
She cut in her arms
That she was hiding from me
She never said a word
And all I said to her
Is that you love her more than
She could ever believed
People judge from what they see
But lord you see the heart
If we had your eyes
Then we'd see things right
If we could just see
From your point of view
Then most things won't be as they seem
If we had your eyes
If we had your eyes
Show me
Teach me
How to see clearly
Live in the spirit and truth
We'd be able to show to love
The way that you love us
If we could see like you
If we had your eyes
If we had your eyes
If we had your eyes
Then we'd see things right
See right
If we could just see
From your point of view
Then most things won't be as they seem
If we had your eyes
Then we'd see things right
God, if I had your eyes
I could love better
Have more compassion
And I would understand what I'm going through
While I'm going through I'd be more patient
God, help me to see things the way you
The way you see things
Did I already say help me to be patient
I'll say that again, wow
Give us your eyes, God
