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

[Repeat *]

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
Well that's okay, baby, I 
don't mine
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 you hair
Like you're so sure I'll be 
standing there

[Repeat * , *]
