Shiny on the Inside

Leona Naess

You're easily amused by what you use
By what you use on the outside
But it's what shines like silver and gold
Silver and gold on the inside
It's a recipe, what it is to be
What it is to be on the inside

The skin outside is taking you for a ride
Taking you for a ride on the inside
And though they're easily to blame
And I'm just listening in on the inside
And when you're old tell me what they'll say
Tell me what they'll say on the inside

So be still, you will find out
From living down on the inside
I'm easily amused by what you use
By what you use for the outside

And it's silver and gold and diamonds
I suppose on the inside
You're silver and gold and diamonds
I suppose shining from the inside

So I'm sorry just the same
Sorry just the same from the inside
It's taken me long to realize this song
Realize it happens on the inside, oh
