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
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 night anticipating
'Cos 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 a while
She swears that soon
she'll be coming
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 your 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
