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

[Chorus]
Because sad eyes never lie
Because sad eyes never lie

[Verse 2]
Well, 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 walking this way

[Chorus]
Because sad eyes never lie
Because sad eyes never lie

[Bridge]
But, 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, darling, it'll slip your mind
[Verse 3]
I know you think you'd never be mine
Well, 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
You come all dressed up for a date
Well, one more step and it'll be too late
Blue, blue ribbon in your hair
Like you're so sure I'll be standing there

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

[Outro]
Sad eyes, sad, sad eyes
Sad eyes never lie
Sad eyes, sad eyes never lie
Sad eyes, sad eyes, sad eyes, sad eyes
Sad eyes never lie, sad eyes never lie
