Hefner - To Hide A Little Thought lyrics

I tried to hide a little thought The more I tried the worse things got It started out so meek and small But in a wink pervaded all Just a stray little stray, stray, stray By tryin' to hide if I'd asked it to stay By tryin'to hide if I'd made it a bed From which to rule the world unsaid To hide a little thought A little vagabond A sprite in the dark That wouldn't move along Many thoughts they come and go This too shall pa**, she'll never know But since my way is bold and free She noticed somethin' strange in me Maybe my voice speeded up or slowed down Maybe my eyes started dartin' around Maybe my hands started coverin' my face Maybe I rambled all over the place To hide a little thought A little vagabond A sprite in the dark That wouldn't move along I don't say each thing on my mind To say each thing would be unkind But with someone I know so well It's so unlike me not to tell Usually I like confrontations, I do I get this thrill out of sayin' what's true I look so lifeless when I try to lie That's why it's easy to tell when I try To hide a little thought A little vagabond A sprite in the dark That wouldn't move along
