Lyin' Eyes

City girls just seem to find out early
How to open doors with just a smile
A rich old man
And she wonÕt have to worry
SheÕll dress up all in lace and go in style
Late at night a big old house gets lonely
I guess evÕry form of refuge has itÕs price
And it breaks her heart to think her love is
Only given to a man with hands as cold as ice
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
To comfort an old friend whoÕs feelinÕ down
But he knows where sheÕs goinÕ as sheÕs leavinÕ
She is headed for the cheatinÕ side of town
You canÕt hide your lyinÕ eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now youÕd realize
There ainÕt no way to hide your lyin eyes
On the other side of town a boy is waiting
With fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
She drives on through the nice anticipating
Õcause he makes her feel the way she used to feel
She rushes to his arms,
They fall together
She whispers that itÕs only for awhile
She swears that soon sheÕll be cominÕ back forever
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile

You canÕt hid your lyinÕ eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now youÕd realize
There ainÕt now way to hide you lyinÕ eyes
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night, itÕs gonna be a long one

She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry
She wonders how it ever got this crazy
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?
SheÕs so far gone she feels just like a fool
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
AinÕt it funny how your new life didnÕt change things
YouÕre still the same old girl you used to be

You canÕt hide your lyin eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now youÕd realize
There ainÕt no way to hide your lyinÕ eyes
There ainÕt no way to hide your lyinÕ eyes
Honey, you canÕt hide your lyinÕ eyes
