You say you're feelin' fine,
You tell me everything's alright.
Well I say, I'm inclined
To disagree.
You tell me not to worry,
That you're taken' things in stride.
But there's somethin' goin' on,
It's clear to me.

Cause you've got sad eyes.
I know you're feelin' blue
Cause you've got sad eyes.
I just cannot be fooled, no I just cannot be fooled
Cause you've got sad eyes.
Those eyes say there is somethin' eatin you.

You try to keep your chin up, try to hide
Behind a smile.
You feel you musn't give up your disguise.
The solace this can bring you only lasts a little while,
So to give up this deception would be wise

Cause you've got sad eyes.
I know you're feelin' blue
Cause you've got sad eyes.
I just cannot be fooled, no I just cannot be
Fooled cause you've got sad eyes.
Those eyes say there is somethin' eatin you
