You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away - The Beatles

Album: Help!

genre: Folk

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

John Lennon about "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away": "That's me in my Dylan period again. I am like a chameleon, influenced by whatever is going on. If Elvis can do it, I can do it. If the Everly Brothers can do it, me and Paul can. Same with Dylan."

When "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" was written, the lyrics were originally "two-foot tall", but John Lennon accidentally sang "two-foot small" and they decided to keep it this way.
