City girls just seem to find out early How to open doors with just a smile A rich old man, and she wont have to worry Shell 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 whos feeling down But he knows where shes goin as shes leavin She is headed for the cheatin side of town
You cant hide your lyin eyes And your smile is a thin disguise I thought by now youd realize There aint 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 its only for a while She swears that soon shell be coming back forever She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
You cant hide your lyin eyes And your smile is a thin disguise I thought by now youd realize There aint 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, its 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?
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things You set it up so well, so carefully Aint it funny how your new life didnt change things? Youre still the same old girl you used to be
You cant hide your lyin eyes And your smile is a thin disguise I thought by now youd realize There aint no way to hide your lyin eyes
There aint no way to hide your lyin eyes Honey, you cant hide your lyin eyes
