If Only Your Eyes Could Lie
Deciphering Deceptive Eyes: Aaron Tippin's Emotional Tale
Lyrics
Girl I can tell that you're thinking of leaving
Girl is contemplating leaving.
But it'll hurt me so much you don't want me to know
Leaving would be painful, and she tries to hide it.
You've done all you can to hide what you're feeling
She has concealed her true feelings.
Oh, but one part of you, it let's your feelings show
Despite efforts, a part of her reveals true emotions.
Oh, your fingertips tell me you'll stay
Her fingertips suggest a desire to stay.
And your warm red lips say you won't go away
Her warm red lips convey a commitment not to leave.
And your lovin' arms make me think you're still mine
Her loving arms create an impression that she is still committed.
Whoa girl, if only your eyes could lie
Expresses a wish that her eyes could deceive, indicating uncertainty.
So I say what's wrong and darlin' you just say it's nothin'
When asked, she dismisses issues as nothing.
I can almost believe it hun when I hold you like this
Despite doubts, there's a momentary belief when they are close.
But I know in my heart that there's no tomorrow
A realization that there may not be a future.
So just for tonight hun I'll pretend that there is
For tonight, they pretend there is a tomorrow.
Oh, your fingertips tell me you'll stay
Her touch continues to signal a desire to stay.
And your warm red lips say you won't go away
Her lips reassure a commitment to stay.
And your lovin' arms make me think you're still mine
Her embrace creates a sense that she still belongs to him.
Whoa girl, if only your eyes could lie
Reiterates the hope that her eyes could deceive, reflecting uncertainty.
Whoa girl, if only your eyes could lie
Repeats the desire for her eyes to lie, emphasizing the longing for reassurance.
