Your Lying Blue Eyes
John Anderson · Greatest Hits [1984]
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
