Lyrics

Tina:
You with the sad eyes,
Don't be discouraged,
Oh, I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people.
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness it's inside you
Can make you feel so small

Tina with New Directions:
But I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you,
So, don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors,
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow.

Tina:
Show me a smile then
Don't be unhappy,
Can't remember when
I last saw you laughing.
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear,
You call me up,
Because you know I'll be there.

Tina with New Directions:
And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you,
So, don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors,
True colors.

Tina:
Are beautiful,
Like a rainbow.
(spoken) I can't remember when I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear

Tina with New Directions:
You call me up,
Because you know I'll be there.

And I'll see your true colors
Shining through (Tina: I see you shining, true)
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you (Tina: That's why I love you!)
So, don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors,
True colors

And I'll see your true colors
Shining through (Tina: Yeah!)
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you,
So, don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors,
True colors

Tina:
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow.
