Feelings You’ve Got to Hide

Why do I feel like I swallowed a butterfly?
Tickling inside, makes me laugh 'til I want to cry
Why are my eyes turning moist while my throat is dry?
Is it that special guy?
Why are my feelings racing around inside?
Will I explode if all of my thoughts collide?
One minute brave, the next minute terrified

Those are feelings you have got to hide

I can't hide what I feel the way that you do

What do you mean? I don't flirt like you

But he's your dream, the apple of your eye

Why do you say that? Tell me why

I'm your sister
I'm your shadow, I do know

Oh, you know?

Yes, I know

What I'm thinking?

What you're thinking
I'm not deaf, I'm not blind

You can always

Read my mind

Now I'm the one lighting up like a firefly
Now I'm the one blushing red, kissing pride goodbye
Why do I want to tell all and yet feel so shy?
Is it that special guy?

You want your buddy standing there by your side

Heart in my throat like I'm on a midway ride
But I'll never show what's going on inside
These are feelings I've got to hide

Why do you feel that way?

These feelings aren't for display

Tell me without delay

You would shout what I would never say

Why are my feelings racing around inside?

These longings can't be satisfied

When all my thoughts collide?

This wave will wash out with the tide

He looks at me with pride

These are feelings you've got to hide

Are these feelings

I've got to hide?
