City girls just seem to find out early How to open doors with just a smile A rich old man, she won't have to worry She'll dress up all the nice, go in style Late at night, that big old house gets lonely I guess every form of refuge has its price And it breaks her heart to think her love is only Given to a man with hands as cold as ice So she tells him she must go out for the evening To comfort an old friend who's feeling down He knows where she's going as she's leaving She is headed for the cheating side of town You can't hide your night eyes And your smile is a thin disguise I thought by now you'd realize There ain't no way to hide your lighted eyes On the other side of town, the boy is waiting With fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal She drives on through the night anticipating And pausing makes her feel the way she used to feel She rushes to his arms, they fall together She whispers that it's only for a while She swears that soon she'll be coming back forever She pulls away and leaves him with a smile You can't hide your night eyes And your smile is a thin disguise I thought by now you'd realize There ain't no way to hide your lighted eyes She gets up and holds herself a strong one Stares out at the stars up in the sky Another night, it's gonna be a long one She draws a shape and hangs her head to cry She wonders how it ever got this crazy She thinks about a boy she knew in school Did she get tired or did she just get lazy She's so far gone she feels just like a fool My oh my, you sure know how to arrange things You set it up so well, so carefully Ain't it funny how your life didn't change things You're still the same old girl you used to be You can't hide your night eyes And your smile is a thin disguise I thought by now you'd realize There ain't no way to hide your lighted eyes Honey, you can't hide your night eyes
