(Terry Clayton/Terri Clark)
The rumor going'round
Is that I haven't shed a tear
But don't they know you can't believe
Everything you hear
'Cause ever since you left
I've been a master of disguise
I may be smiling on the outside
But don't look into my eyes, 'cause...
The inside story
Is as clear as black and white
I still dream about you
When I turn out the lights
The news out on the street
Says you didn't break my heart
But the inside story
Is tearing me apart
I thought maybe there was something wrong
That we'd work out in time
And looking back I can see
I didn't read between the lines
And now my pride helps me hide the pain
So it's not written on my face
When we pass I'll pretend your memory
Was easy to erase, but...
The inside story
Is as clear as black and white
I still dream about you
When I turn out the lights
The news out on the street
Says you didn't break my heart
But the inside story
Is tearing me apart
Oh, the inside story
Is tearing me apartI like you when I'm in the mood
As the crow flies I go too
Silver slivers in your eyes make it worth every lie
I ever told, they turn to gold
They kept me
They kept me here on this battlefield
I find out what you're all about, when I think to look around
I feel my toes curl half-way around the world
I'm sorry now
There's magic here and magic's weird
Look, this is you
Head in the clouds, feet underground,
And when you shake the dogs howl
I'm gonna live forever
Head in the clouds, feet underground,
And when you shake the dogs howl
I'm gonna live forever
Strange angels made this planet glow,
then kicked us out
I keep my nails dug into my half of the rug
I'm sorry now, I'm sorry now
You don't know how, look, this is you
Head in the clouds, feet underground,
And when you shake the dogs howl
I'm gonna live forever
Head underground, we'll hang around,
And when we shake the earth moves
We're gonna live forever
