Lyrics
[verse]
She married for the house upon the hill,
Told herself that comfort was a thrill,
But some nights she drives without a plan,
Chasing something she can't understand.
[chorus]
And her eyes, they never learned to lie for long,
They give away the words she can't put in a song,
She smiles for everyone who's watching her,
But the truth is written soft and blurred.
[verse]
There's a man downtown who knows her name,
Waits for her beneath the neon flame,
She tells herself it's just a passing thing,
But her heart keeps asking what tomorrow brings.
[chorus]
And her eyes, they never learned to lie for long,
They give away the words she can't put in a song,
She smiles for everyone who's watching her,
But the truth is written soft and blurred.
[bridge]
Somewhere between the vows and the regret,
She's still chasing something she can't forget,
Nobody warned her love could cost this much,
Or that freedom fades at just a touch.
[chorus]
And her eyes, they never learned to lie for long,
They give away the words she can't put in a song,
She smiles for everyone who's watching her,
But the truth is written soft and blurred.
