The Eagles Lyin` Eyes Lyrics

Lyin` Eyes 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 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 hid your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin
disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't now 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
