[Verse 1]
Every day here you come walkin'
I hold my tongue, I don't do much talkin'
You say you're happy and you're doin' fine
Well, go on, baby, I got plenty of time

[Chorus]
'Cause sad eyes never lie
Sad eyes never lie

[Verse 2]
For a while I've been watching you steady
Ain't gonna move 'til you're good and ready
You show up and then you shy away
But I know pretty soon you'll be walkin' this way

[Chorus]
'Cause sad eyes never lie
Sad eyes never lie

[Bridge]
Baby, don't you know, I don't care
Don't you know that I've been there
Well, if somethin' in the air feels a little unkind
Don't worry, darlin', it'll slip your mind
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I know you think you'd never be mine
That's okay, baby, I don't mind
That shy smile's sweet, that's a fact
Go ahead, I don't mind the act
Here you come all dressed up for a date
Well, one more step and it'll be too late
Blue, blue ribbon in my hair
You're so sure I'll be standing there

[Chorus]
I guess sad eyes never lie
Sad eyes never lie
I guess sad eyes never lie
Sad eyes never lie
