Lyrics to Bobby Vee

They say that you’re a run around lover

Tho’ you say it isn’t so

But if you put me down for another

I’ll know, believe me

I’ll know

‘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

Has a thousand eyes

One of these days you’re gonna be sorry

‘Cause your game I’m gonna play

And you’ll find out without really trying

Each time that my kisses stray

That the night has a thousand eyes

And a thousand eyes will see me through

And no matter what I do

I could never disguise

All those 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
