M.P. Shaudd Poet Lyric

Lyin Eyes Lyin Hearts

She tells me, she loves me, but I know
Her eyes can’t keep a secret and it shows
If she could, I know, she’d let me go
Cause only resentment grows

Lyin’ eyes
Lyin’ hearts
We’ve both given up
But we still play the part
If not for the fear, of a new start
We’d do what’s right
Lyin’ eyes
Lyin’ hearts

Who’ll make the first move 
What’s holding us back
This is long overdue
We’ve traded comfort for facts

We’ve wasted more time
Than we may have left
Livin’ aint lovin’ if it’s done so in jest

Lyin’ eyes
Lyin’ hearts
We’ve both given up
But we still play the part
If not for the fear, of a new start
We’d do what’s right
Lyin’ eyes
Lyin’ hearts

Why are we holding tight
To lyin’ eyes and lyin’ hearts

John Hamilton October 3, 2020 at 7:12 PM Songwriting classes cannot teach what you have, you have a natural feel, down to earth style that country music loves. M.P. Shaudd October 5, 2020 at 2:14 PM Thanks John!

M.P. Shaudd July 31, 2020 at 6:22 PM Many thanks Caren! Tbh the Lyin eyes part is supposed to be the chorus. I’ve been writing songs for about 3 years. I’m the guy that won’t take classes because I’m afraid I’ll then hold myself to a “standard” instead of how I write.I tend to stick with the traditional stuff you wont hear on the radio. Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated! John Hamilton October 3, 2020 at 7:11 PM I beg to differ, Caren's right these lyrics are good enough, do you do the music? cause I hear a strong country song!

Caren Krutsinger July 31, 2020 at 4:11 PM Blake Shelton could sing this one if you added a chorus. If you are not writing songs you should be,
