Every 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
Sad eyes never lie
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
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 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
