Lyrics Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen

Sad Eyes

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

Wel,l 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

Sad eyes never lie

Sad eyes never lie

Sad eyes never lie

Sad eyes never lie
