Happy On the Outside
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.
You can watch her doin' the rounds
She's there for everyone
Throwin' kisses, makin' plans
For midnight men, mornin' sons
Well, did the wine make her dance?
No, she's always been the star
She's got that riddle in her smile
But a burden in her heart
She's so happy on the outside
But she's cryin' on the inside
And there's nothin' i can do
To make her glad
So happy on the outside
Hurtin' on the inside
And it's sad so sad
Baby, it's so sad
Hey, did the wine make her dance?
No, she's always been a star
So be prepared to fall in love
Though her heart hides the scars
She's so happy on the outside
Hurtin' on the inside
It's such a sad sad sight
Such a sad sad sight
She's so happy on the outside
But she's cryin' on the inside
And there's nothin' i can do
To make it right
She's so happy on the outside
Oooh, hurtin' on the inside
It's such a sad sad sight
Such a sad sad sight
