They say that you're a run-around lover
You tell me it's not 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

So remember when you tell those little white lies
That the night has a thousand eyes

You say that you're at home when you phone me
And how much you really care
Though you keep telling me that you're lonely
I'll know if someone is there
'Cause the night has a thousand eyes
And a thousand eyes can't help but see

So remember when you tell those little white lies
That the night has a thousand eyes

One of these days you're gonna be crying
'Cause your game I'm gonna play
And you'll find out without really trying
It's time that my kisses stray
'Cause the night has a thousand eyes
And a thousand eyes will see me too

I could never disguise all my little white lies
'Cause the night has a thousand eyes

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
