Living In The Woods (These Eyes Don't Lie)
Words and Music by Rob Niemi
Written Saturday, April 18, 1998

When is it my turn to rest
And calm my aching heart for a while?
If these days were meant to be the best
Then why is it just so hard to smile

Now, I?ve got my share of regrets
And I pray to God for mercy on me
Yeah, living in the woods would probably be my best bet
Whoa yeah, to keep my mind and soul on what I believe

Now I can?t let myself down and fade away
And I can?t keep waitin? around for a better
And through these clouds I see Your sweet sunshine
Please tell me, Lord, these eyes don?t lie
Please tell me, Lord, my eyes don?t lie

Could this be my turn to shine
Clear these clouds right out of my mind?
Could this be my turn to be somebody
Who?s not ashamed of how he?s living his life?
Yeah, yeah

Now I can?t let myself down and fade away
And I can?t keep waitin? around for a better
And through these clouds I see the sweet sunshine
Please tell me, Lord, these eyes don?t lie
Please tell me, Lord, my eyes don?t lie
Hmm?

When is it my turn to rest
And calm my aching heart for awhile
