[Verse 1: Emily West] 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 oh inside you makes you feel so small [Chorus: Both] 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 [Verse 2: Cyndi Lauper] Show me a smile then And don't be unhappy can't remember when I Last saw you laughing If world makes you crazy and you've taken all you can bear You call me up, because you know I'll be there [Chorus: Both] And 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 [Emily West] And I can't remember when I last saw you laughing If world makes you crazy and you've taken all you can bear You call me up, because you know I'll be there [Chorus: Both] And 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 True colors are 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 [Emily West] Like a rainbow
