Hide It Away

Richard Thompson

I sigh when people pass by and I hide it away 
I wipe a tear from my eye and I hide it away 
When I need you the most 
I hold the ghost of you inside 
So I keep the flame, and go on my way 
Laugh at the game and I hide it away 
Hide it away 
Hide it away 

I break down in the street and I hide it away 
Can't speak, can't move my feet and I hide it away 
I smile through the mask of my face 
But deep and wide is the hurt inside 
So I live to love some other day 
Laugh at the game and I hide it away 
Hide it away 
Hide it away 

When I need you the most 
I hold the ghost of you inside 
So I keep the flame, and go on my way 
Laugh at the game and I hide it away 
Hide it away 
Hide it away 
Hide it away
