People Hide Their Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I went out last night to a cabaret,
I got home this mornin' at the break of day.
[chorus:]
People hide their love, People hide their love,
People hide their love, People hide their love.
Knockin' on my door; I know there's nobody home,
But I go on in; talk to the telephone.
[repeat chorus]
In the dimlit crowd, in a creaking bone,
in the laugh too loud, in the midnight groan.
[repeat chorus]
I went out last night to a little cabaret,
I got home this mornin' at the break of day.
