(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
(Ending Cadence) (End of song)
