"Lonely Eyes" lyrics

"Lonely Eyes"

Across the crowded room
See her sittin' all alone
Lookin' like an angel
With no place to call home
Striking up a conversation
They begin by trading names
She begins to smile
And they begin to play the game

She's heard every line
They're a dozen for a dime
But tonight she's gonna listen one more time

Lonely eyes say she's willing
Lonely eyes show her feelings
She's seen too many nights
Too many lovers
Maybe tonight won't be like all the others

Sad nights on her face
Show a lonesome midnight queen
Nothing left to hope for
Nothing left to dream
And lately all her lovers
Have begun to look the same
Names that have no faces
Faces without names

She's heard every line
They're a dozen for a dime
But tonight she's gonna listen one more time

Lonely eyes say she's willing
Lonely eyes show her feelings
She's seen too many nights
Too many lovers
Maybe tonight won't be like all the others

It's hard to face the morning
With a stranger by her side
But late at night it's easy
To overcome her pride

So she tells him that she loves him
She said she knew it from the start
But they both know she's lying
It's not coming from her heart

Lonely eyes say she's willing
Lonely eyes show her feelings
She's seen too many nights
Too many lovers
Maybe tonight won't be like all the others

Lonely eyes say she's willing
(Her lonely eyes are willing)
Lonely eyes show her feelings
(Ah-ahhhh)
Lonely eyes say she's willing
(She's so lonely, the girl's so lonely)
Lonely eyes show her feelings
Lonely eyes say she's willing
(Lonely eyes are willing)
Lonely eyes show her feelings
