Moederogen
Will Tura Lyrics
Als ik plannen had om uit te gaan
Met het meisje dat mijn hart deed slaan
Wou m’n moeder steeds
Dat ik thuis studeren bleef
Dan verzon ik gauw dat een vriend van mij
Mijn leerboek had bewaard
En zo was ik weer eens vrij
Maar twee moederogen
Kan je niet bedriegen
Want die ogen zien te scherp
Om in te liegen
Denk niet dat de kleinste leugen
Aan haar blik ontgaat
Want haar moederogen
Zien dwars door je hart
Voor de eerste keer heb ik liefdespijn
Niemand die het weet
Ik lijd in ’t geheim
Maar ik ga mijn gang
Alsof het mij niet schelen kan
En ik lach heel luid ik zing en praat
En iedereen geloofd
Dat ik me dol vermaak
Maar twee moederogen
Kan je niet bedriegen
Want die ogen zien te scherp
Om in te liegen
Denk niet dat de kleinste leugen
Aan haar blik ontgaat
Want haar moederogen
Zien dwars door je hart
Met het meisje dat mijn hart deed slaan
Wou m’n moeder steeds
Dat ik thuis studeren bleef
Dan verzon ik gauw dat een vriend van mij
Mijn leerboek had bewaard
En zo was ik weer eens vrij
Maar twee moederogen
Kan je niet bedriegen
Om in te liegen
Denk niet dat de kleinste leugen
Aan haar blik ontgaat
Want haar moederogen
Zien dwars door je hart
Voor de eerste keer heb ik liefdespijn
Niemand die het weet
Ik lijd in ’t geheim
Maar ik ga mijn gang
Alsof het mij niet schelen kan
En ik lach heel luid ik zing en praat
En iedereen geloofd
Dat ik me dol vermaak
Maar twee moederogen
Kan je niet bedriegen
Want die ogen zien te scherp
Om in te liegen
Denk niet dat de kleinste leugen
Aan haar blik ontgaat
Want haar moederogen
Zien dwars door je hart
