Lyrics

  1. They say that you’re a runaround lover
    Tho you say it isn’t so
    But if you put me down for another
    I’ll know, believe me, I know

Chorus
Cause the night has a thousand eyes
And a thousand eyes can’t help but see
If you aren’t true to me
So remember when you tell
Those little white lies
That the night as a thousand eyes

  1. You say that you’re at home when you phone me
    And how much you really care
    Tho you keep telling me that you’re lonely
    I’ll know if someone is there

Chorus
Cause the night has a thousand eyes
And a thousand eyes can’t help but see
If you aren’t true to me
So remember when you tell
Those little white lies
That the night as a thousand eyes

  1. One of these days you’re gonna be cryin’
    ‘Cause your game I’m gonna play
    And you’ll find out without really tryin’
    Each time that my kisses stray

Chorus
Cause the night has a thousand eyes
And a thousand eyes will see me too
And no matter what I’d do
I could never disguise all my little white lies
‘Cause the night has a thousand eyes
So remember when you tell
Those little white lies
That the night has a thousand eyes
