Sad eyes

never lie...

Sad Eyes

Bruce Springsteen

Ev'ry day here, you come walking

I hold my tongue, I don't do much talking

You say you're happy and you're doin' fine

Well, go ahead, baby; I got plenty of time

Because sad eyes never lie

Because sad eyes never lie

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 walkin' this way

Because sad eyes never lie

'Cause sad eyes never lie

Baby, don't you know I don't care?

Don't you know that I've been there?

Well, if something in the air feels a little unkind

Don't worry, darling; 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 your hair

Like you're so sure I'll be standing here

I guess sad eyes never lie

I guess sad eyes never lie

I guess sad eyes never lie

Sad eyes never lie
