You think you know me pretty well But how can you tell You never get inside my head The times we talk we never speak We play hide and seek So many things are left unsaid Why can't you see What's on the other side of me The side of me that reaches out to you Sweet thoughts and dreams Like drops of rain on rippling streams That wind and bend Rivers with no end Flowing on the other side of me It seems I always get unstrung I trip on my tongue With words that come out somethin' else I'm so afraid the things I say Might chase you away I have to hide behind myself Why can't you see What's on the other side of me The side of me that reaches out to you Why must I hide These feelings that have been denied Only you can set me free See what's on the other side of me La la la la la la la la La la la la la La la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la La la la la la I have to hide behind myself Why can't you see What's on the other side of me The side of me that reaches out to you Why must I hide These feelings that have been denied Only you can set me free See what's on the other side of me On the other side of me On the other side of me
