(Verse 1)
There was a voice behind her shoulder
A boy with joy on his face who was older
He said follow me to the tree in the back yard
And we'll be connecting where I am and you are

There is a girl who prefers life as a song
She's cute, her heart strong, hopefully that will last long
She hears the boy tell her joys without speaking
Kissing his cheek and you hear her singing

(Chorus)
The sun in your eyes tells me lies that I'm wanting to hear
You whisper sweet nothings inside my little ear
And who knows
Where we'll go
But when you are near
I know the lies will be true next year

(Verse 2)
Marriage comes soon on a sunlit beach and
She's all choked up, almost not able to speak yeah
The preacher then blesses them, asking the question
She holds tears back as she says yes, but

He hesitates, yes he waits, he not sure
He looks around, not really sure what for
His lip quivers with the word that has much doubt
She sees this and you can hear her scream out

(Chorus)
The sun in your eyes tells me lies that I'm wanting to hear
You only whisper sweet nothings inside my ears
I can't believe
You're doubting
While I'm holding tears
Just give us a chance at romance
We'll be okay, no fear

(Verse 3)
Years pass, the love's died, but they don't know yet
She's seeing other guys, not feeling much regret
He always works, never meaning to hurt, but it does
Obviously their marriage is not as it was

He comes home early to show her he's trying hard
Imagine when he sees a man in her arms
What would you do in his shoes, would you just run away?
He kicks the door in, her head spins as she hears him say

(Chorus)
The sun in your eyes told me lies that I wanted to hear
But in my eyes your gone, 'cause you've confirmed my darkest of fears
And the sting
That you bring
Will never ever leave or disappear
Because the sun in your eyes is now gone
It's dropped out with my tears

The sun in his eyes tells her lies that she's wanting to hear
She whispers sweet nothings inside his little ear
And who knew
They'd go through
So much through the years
Because of neglect they forget
All the thing they held dear
