LYIN' EYES – THE EAGLES

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 going as she's leaving
She is headed for the cheating' side of town

REFREIN / CHORUS
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

INSTRUMENTAL

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, "It's only for a while"
She swears that soon she'll be coming back forever
She goes away and leave the town with a smile

REFREIN / CHORUS
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

INSTRUMENTAL

She gets up and pours herself a strong one, and stares out at the stars up in the sky
Anther night, its gonna be a long one, she draws the shade & 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

REFREIN / CHORUS
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
