Lyin' Eyes - 2013 Remaster

Lyrics

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, go in style
 Late at night, a big old house gets lonely
 I guess every 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 feeling 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 night, 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 a while
 She swears that soon she'll be coming 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 your 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
