City girls just seem to find out early
|
How to open doors with just a smile
|
A rich old man
|
And she won't have to worry
|
She'll dress up all in lace and go in style
|
|
Late at night a big old house gets lonely
|
I guess ev'ry form of refuge has its 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 who's feelin' down
|
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
|
She is headed for the cheatin' side of town
|
|
You can't hide your lyin' eyes
|
And your smile is a thin disguise
|
I thought by now you'd realize
|
There ain't 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
|
'Cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel
|
|
She rushes to his arms,
|
They fall together
|
She whispers that it's only for awhile
|
She swears that soon she'll be comin' back forever
|
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
|
|
You can't hide your lyin' eyes
|
And your smile is a thin disguise
|
I thought by now you'd realize
|
There ain't no way to hide you lyin' eyes
|
|
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
|
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
|
Another night, it's 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?
|
She's 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
|
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
|
You're still the same old girl you used to be
|
|
You can't hide your lyin eyes
|
And your smile is a thin disguise
|
I thought by now you'd realize
|
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
|
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
|
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes
|
