Your lying blue eyes used to charm me And hypnotize me through and through Like a fool Lord I've been dreaming Your lying blue eyes just told on you All those stories I've been hearing I wouldn't believe that they were true But just this morning over coffee Your lying blue eyes just told on you Your lying blue eyes used to charm me Hypnotize me through and through Like a fool Lord I've been dreaming Your lying blue eyes just told on you For a long time I have loved you And I thought that you loved me too Now all my questions have been answered Your lying blue eyes just told on you And your lying blue eyes used to charm me Hypnotize me through and through Like a fool Lord I've been dreaming Your lying blue eyes just told on you Your lying blue eyes just told on you
