Here I stand head in hand

turn my face to the wall

if she's gone I can't go on

feeling two foot small.

 

Everywhere people stare

each and every day

I can see them laugh at me

and I hear them say.

 

Hey, you've got to hide your love away

Hey, you've got to hide your love away.

 

How can I even try

I can never win

hearing them, seeing them

in the state I'm in.

 

How could she say to me

love will find a way

gather round all you clowns

let me hear you say.

 

Hey, you've got to hide your love away

Hey, you've got to hide your love away.
