True Colors
Performer: Cyndi Lauper

You with the ________________________ eyes

Don't be ________________________
Oh, I realize
It’s ________________________ to take courage
In a world ________________________ of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness inside you
Can make you feel so ________________________

But I see your ________________________ colors

Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be ________________________ to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are ________________________
Like a rainbow

Show me a smile, then

Don't be ________________________ , can’t remember when
I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you ________________________
And you've taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I'll be there

And I'll see your true colors

Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow

If this world makes you crazy

And you've taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I'll be there

And I'll see your true colors

Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors
True colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow
