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, 'cause

Sad eyes never lie

Sad eyes never lie



For a while I've been watching you steady

Ain't gonna move 'till you're good and ready

You show up and then you shy away

But I know pretty soon you'll be

walkin' this way, 'cause

Sad eyes never lie

Sad eyes never lie



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



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



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

I guess sad eyes never lie

Sad eyes never lie

I guess sad eyes never lie

Sad eyes never lie
