City girls just seem to find out early
how to open doors with just a smile
a rich old man and she wonand't have to worry
sheand'll dress up all in lace and go in style
Late at night a big ole house gets lonely,
i guess every form 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 whoand's feeling down
but he knows where sheand's going as sheand's leaving
she is headed for the cheatinand' side of town.
You canand't hide your lyinand' eyes
and your smile is a thin disguise
i thought by now youand'd realize
there ainand't no way to hide your lyinand' eyes
On the other side of town a boy is waiting
with firey 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 itand's only for a while
she swears that soon sheand'll be coming back forever
she pulls away and leaves him with a smile
You canand't hide your lyinand' eyes
and your smile is a thin disguise
i thought by now youand'd realize
there ainand't no way to hide your lyinand' eyes
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
and stares out at the stars up in the sky
another night - itand's gonna be a long one
she draws the shade and hangs her head and cries
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
sheand's so far gone, she feels just like a fool
My, oh my, you sure know know how to arrange things
you set it up so well, so carefully
ainand't it funny how your new life didnand't change things
youand're still the same oleand' girl you used to be
You canand't hide your lyinand' eyes
and your smile is a thin disguise
i thought by now youand'd realize
there ainand't no way to hide your lyinand' eyes...
there ainand't no way to hide your lyinand' eyes...
honey you canand't hide your lyinand' eyes...
