Lyrics:
You with the sad eyes.
Don't be discouraged.
Oh I realize,
it's hard to take courage
in a world full of people.
You can lose sight of it all.
And the darkness inside you,
can make you feel so small
But I 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.
Show me a smile then.
Don't be unhappy. Can't remember
when I last saw you laughing.
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 are beautiful,
like a rainbow.
