(Wetton/Downes) This evening really came as some surprise It showed me just how little faith I think back when you couldn't criticize You sure were glad to see my face But now your TRUE COLORS are giving away ^^^ ^^^ ^^^^ ^^^ ( not on album ) your lies TRUE COLORS seeing them in your eyes Chorus For you the tables [sic] turned full circle now And all those people you call friends See who defends you when you're down again Don't count on money-spinners then They could be my TRUE COLORS maybe ^^^^ ^^^^^ ^^ ^^ ( not on album ) you'll see them then TRUE COLORS twisting the knife again Chorus You did what you wanted to do I lived to fight another day I know what I want you to do, [just] pack your bags ( ^^^^ in song, not liner ) and get away
