(Lee Hazlewood)

These shades can hide the teardrops crying
But not the way I feel inside
These shades can only do their part, oh yeah
But these shades can't hide a broken heart.

These shades can hide my red red eyes
But not the hurt left by your lies
These shades can only do their part, oh yeah
But these shades can't hide a broken heart.

Dark shades I'll keep on wearin'
As long as I'm still cryin' for you
And I still love you so
Oh, why did you go now.

These shades can hide my eyes away
But not the pain I feel each day
These shades can only do their part oh yeah
But these shades can't hide a broken heart.

But these shades can't hide a broken heart...
But these shades can't hide a broken heart
These shades can't hide a broken heart
