  FOUR TOPS
  Standing In The Shadows Of Love
EAGLES
Lyin' Eyes

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


'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
