Too many love affairs that didn't turn out right Too many battlegrounds and tears that end in fights A mirror shattered by the pain that's in your heart A close embrace that made us both feel more apart Oh hide your emotions You better disguise your emotions in love I spent a long time waiting for your apathy to change I kept this heartache to myself, making me feel strange I've been around a lot - I learned a lot And when I get uptight Although I feel hot, I take a shot And ride off in the night Oh hide your emotions You better disguise you emotions in love I've been up a while - down a while Up and down - it makes me smile We burn it all - spurn it all Acting big but feeling small Make our mark upon the map When you die you beat the rap Oh hide your emotions You better disguise your emotions in love...
