Red Lips, Blue Eyes, Little White Lies
Love's Deception: Red Lips, Blue Eyes, and the Cost of Little White Lies
Lyrics
Red lips, blue eyes and little white lies
Reference to physical attributes (red lips, blue eyes) and deceitful behavior (little white lies).
Oh darlin' I'm a fool for you
Expressing deep affection and willingness to overlook flaws for the person mentioned.
Hey darlin' why can't you can be true
Questioning the sincerity and truthfulness of the person addressed (darlin').
Red lips, blue eyes and sweet disguise
Reiteration of physical features and the suggestion of a deceptive facade.
Oh darlin' the things you put me through
Expressing frustration about the difficulties caused by the person's actions.
Your little white lies are breaking my heart in two
Conveying the emotional impact of the lies, indicating heartbreak.
You come around and tell me that you love me so
Describing the person's inconsistent behavior, expressing love followed by a sudden departure.
You take a little loving then you say you gotta go
Highlighting a pattern of receiving affection only to be left alone shortly afterward.
I know he's waiting for you on the other side of town
Suggesting the presence of a rival or someone else the person is involved with in another part of town.
Well I'm a fool to love you baby 'cause I know you're messing around
Acknowledging awareness of the person's unfaithfulness but expressing continued love despite it.
Red lips, blue eyes and little white lies
Reiteration of physical attributes and the theme of deception through lies.
Oh darlin' why can't you be true
Repeating the plea for honesty and truthfulness from the person addressed.
I'm crazy to love you baby you know I do, yeah
Admitting the irrationality of loving someone despite their deceitful behavior.
Sooner or later you'll have to face the truth
Forecasting a future where the consequences of lies will be unavoidable.
Little white lies will catch up with you
Stating that lies will eventually catch up with the person, emphasizing accountability.
With nowhere to run and no where to hide
Describing a situation where escape and avoidance are no longer possible.
And no one to love you there by your side
Conveying isolation and lack of support due to the repercussions of the lies.
Red lips, blue eyes and little white lies
Recalling the physical attributes and deceptive behavior that have caused distress.
Oh darlin' the things you put me through
Expressing frustration and detailing the emotional toll of the person's actions.
But your little white lies are gonna catch up with you
Warning that the consequences of the lies will eventually catch up with the person.
Oh your little white lies are gonna catch up with you
Repeating the prediction that the person will face the repercussions of their deceitful actions.
Baby your little white lies are gonna catch up with you
Reiterating the inevitability of facing the consequences of the little white lies.
