    Lyrics

    THESE EYES DON'T LIE

    La la la la la la la la La la la la
    La la la la la la la la La la la la

    Absolute
    You called me absolute
    I swallowed my refute
    You’re so damned astute
    What will you do now that you
    have caught a glimpse of me?
    Will you stay
    or will you need convincing?

    I choked out my reply “We’ll talk about that later”
    ‘Cause in your eyes I feared the old invaders
    Should I see this through or grab the plans for my escape route?
    Will you take a stand between me and every way out?

    Quit the schemes
    Forgive the crimes
    Risk it all for clear blue skies
    These eyes don’t lie

    La la la la la la la la La la la la

    I’ve lived so many fictions I’ve got sonar for the truth.
    Yeah you sound delicious but I gotta hear some proof
    What if you knew you’re the only one that sees me cry?
    Each time I leave you I’m scared it’s the last time

    Quit the schemes
    Forgive the crimes
    Risk it all for clear blue skies
    These eyes don’t lie

    I’ve tried too many times
    Looked in so many eyes
    But everyone’s a liar
    Until you tell yourself the truth

    La la la la la la la la La la la la
    These eyes don’t lie
    These eyes don’t lie
    These eyes don’t lie

    So I’ll quit the schemes
    Forgive the crimes
    Risk it all for clear blue skies
    These eyes don’t lie
    These eyes don’t lie
    These eyes don’t lie

    La la la la la la la la La la la la
    La la la la la la la la La la la la
    La la la la la la la la La la la la
    La la la la la la la la

    La la la la la la la la La la la la
    La la la la la la la la La la la la
    La la la la la la la la La la la la
    La la la la la la la la La la la la

    These Eyes Don't Lie
