Telescope
Nashville Cast Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah
Mhm, mhm
Won't do no good, if you run from me
There ain't no cheatin', schemin' my heart don't see
You left your troubles in my head, in my head
You left your secrets in my bed, in my bed
You're like the cover of a book that's been read, baby
I know what line is coming next, coming next

You can't hide from me
There ain't no tricks that you can try on me
I know your every move before you even breathe, baby
Thinking you know something I don't know
But my eyes, my eyes, my eyes are like a telescope

You're kissing her, when my head is turned
You must be crazy, baby, haven't you learned?
You can't deceive me silly child, silly child
I don't believe that pretty smile, pretty smile
My intuition can see for miles and miles, baby
Every little sin, and everywhere you've been

You can't hide from me
There ain't no tricks that you can try on me
I know your every move before you even breathe, baby
Thinking you know something I don't know
But my eyes, my eyes, my eyes are like a telescope, yeah, yeah, au

(Wooh, wooh)
(Wooh, wooh)

You left your troubles in my head, in my head
You left your secrets in my bed

You can't hide from me
There ain't no tricks that you can try on me
I know your every move before you even breathe, baby
Thinking you know something I don't know
But my eyes

You can't hide from me (hide from me)
There ain't no tricks that you can try on me (try on me)
I know your every move before you even breathe, baby
Thinking you know something I don't know
But my eyes, my eyes, my eyes are like a telescope

(My eyes see) baby
(My eyes see)




(My eyes see)
Are like a telescope

The lyrics convey a feeling of betrayal and the certainty of the other person's actions. The opening lines "Won't do no good, if you run from me/There ain't no cheatin', schemin' my heart don't see" make it clear that there is no hiding anything from the person singing the song. The lines "You're kissing her, when my head is turned/You must be crazy, baby, haven't you learned?" indicate that the other person is engaging in infidelity, and despite thinking they are being secretive, the singer knows all about it.


The chorus "Thinking you know something I don't know/But my eyes, my eyes, my eyes are like a telescope" emphasizes how the singer sees everything, and nothing can be kept from them. The lyrics convey a sense of empowerment as the singer knows the truth and sees the deceit for what it is. The lines "You left your troubles in my head, in my head/You left your secrets in my bed" indicate how the other person has quite literally left their problems with the singer, and they are not willing to ignore them.
