Sad Puppy Eyes

Verse 1)

You lean in close but don’t say a word

Your silence louder than anything heard

Try to act like you don’t care tonight

But your face giving everything away in the light

You laugh it off, play it cool and sweet

But your heart racing fast when you next to me

Every time I turn to leave

You pull me back with the way you breathe

(Pre-Chorus)

You don’t gotta say what you want inside

Your eyes already crossed that line

(Chorus — Hook)

Those sad puppy eyes

Pull me back every time

You don’t say it out loud

But your stare crosses lines

Those sad puppy eyes

Say you’re losing the fight

You want me — I know

From the look in your eyes

(Verse 2 — with echo)

You bite your lip when I walk your way (walk your way…)

Like you got something you wanna say (wanna say…)

Hands in your pockets, heart on display

Trying to hide what you feel but you can’t behave

You move real slow like you scared to fall

But your eyes begging for it all

Every glance burning through

Telling me things your mouth won’t do

(Pre-Chorus)

You keep pretending you’re alright

But your stare giving you up tonight

(Chorus)

Those sad puppy eyes

Pull me back every time

You don’t say it out loud

But your stare crosses lines

Those sad puppy eyes

Say you’re losing the fight

You want me — I know

From the look in your eyes

(Bridge)

We dance around what we both feel

Playing safe but nothing’s real

You want more but you’re afraid

So you look at me instead of saying my name

(Break)

Those eyes… those eyes…

(Final Chorus)

Those sad puppy eyes

Pull me back every time

You don’t say it out loud

But your stare crosses lines

Those sad puppy eyes

Say you’re losing the fight

You want me — I know

From the look in your eyes

(Outro)

You don’t gotta speak tonight

I already read your eyes
