I am crying inside
Putting on a smiling face
There is no place for me to hide
I am crying inside
Said I was doing fine I lied
I am crying inside

It's a wonderful world pray tell
For some it can be a living hell
Is your cup half full or half empty 
We live on an abundant planet of plenty
Poverty and suffering it persists
Your life can take turns and twists
Try and be grateful for what you have got
Those that struggle forget them not

I am crying inside
Look into my eyes
See my soul 
Piece by piece I am losing control
I am crying inside
The tears on my face have dried 
I am crying inside

You taught me the meaning of love
Now you reside in the heavens above
You left me behind its difficult to cope
Each and every day I wish for hope
People and faces they come and go
When you find a soul mate you know
Time it flies the years away they run
The day will come when we will be as one

I am crying inside
Putting on a smiling face
There is no place for me to hide
I am crying inside
Said I was doing fine I lied
I am crying inside
