Smilin’ on the outside
While I’m cryin’ on the inside
Why can‘t I just let you know
Why is it that I can’t show you
Who I really am
Behind my mask, beneath my shell
If you look hard you will find
A lonely child with a sad sweet smile
A special friend of mine
That part of me I won’t let you see
Unless I know it’s safe
Let me open up,let me learn to trust
For this, O Lord, I pray
Or I’ll keep smilin’ on the outside
While I’m cryin’ on the inside
Afraid to let you really know
Scared you’d leave me if I showed you
Who I really am
