Lyin' Eyes

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 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
