Can't Hide

Mama what's the recipe
for happiness deep inside
Mama what's the secret
I don't know it
I can't hide
what I don't know

Mama it's cold outside
in the summertime it's hot
I just want to be welcomed back in
I would be happy to be welcomed back in
I can't hide
what makes me happy

Mama there's all these rules
I never get it right
staying close to your crooked line
I never get it straight
I just want it to be okay
I can't hide
what is not okay

Mama daylight's fading
our conversation's waning thin
I can never show you
what powers my light within
I can't hide
my light within
