And you take it all you can, babe
or
And you've taken all you can give
And you've taken all you can bear
And you've taken all you can bet
And you've taken all you can bear
Beautiful, sad eyes
You with the sad eyes.
But I see your blue diamonds shining through
But I see your true colors shining through
But I see your true diamonds shining through
But I see your true colors shining through
I see Judy Collins shining through
I see your true colors shining through
I see your true colors on channel 2
I see your true colors shining through
I see your true colors, show me who
I see your true colors shining through
I see your two colors shining through
I see your true colors shining through
In a world full of people
Who used to live inside the wall
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
Just show me your anal
Just show me your rainbow
So don't be a prep.
So don't be afraid.
The shine is through
They're shining through
True colors are beautiful and green.
True colors are beautiful like a rainbow.
When I see your crew cuts
When i see your true colors
