INTRO
VERSE 1
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 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 feelin' down.
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin, she is headed for the
cheatin side of town.
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
VERSE 2
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
awhile.
She swears that soon she'll be comin back forever she pulls away and leaves
him with a smile.
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
VERSE 3
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 said it 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.
CHORUS/OUTRO
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.
