Sweet Peyton

My Chocolate Lab, Peyton was hit by a car and killed this morning. She wasn't even 2 yet. :-( I am biased of course, but she was an AMAZING dog. Every day when I would come home from work, she would excitedly greet me at the door. If I was ever upset, she would lick my face, and every night she slept in my sister and I's room, ususally in one of our beds. :-P I've had her since she was just eight weeks old. If I had to describe her in one word, it would be loving. She was an extremely loving dog. To say that my family and I are going to miss her would be an understatement. Now I know why they call dogs a man's best friend.

"Give Me Your Eyes"

="http://www.youtube.com/v/G3sQ3NEqFdg&hl=en

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
Are 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
For those far beyond my reach?
Give me Your heart for the once forgotten
Give me Your eyes so I can see
again
again
yeah
yeah

Step out on a busy street
See a girl and our eyes meet
Does her best to smile at me
To hide whats underneath
Theres 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
Are those people going somewhere?
Why have I never cared?

Ive 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 alone

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
For those far beyond my reach?
Give me Your heart for the once forgotten
Give me Your eyes so I can see
again
again
yeah
yeah
