On the Inside - Michael Franks

Remember, when your kite hits the ground

And your smile turns upside down

It’s only going on inside you

Whenever the libretto won’t do

And all the notes become too blue

Remember there’s a song inside you

Cara mia, if you’re ever lost at sea

Just call on me

You always have my love to guide you

When you give more than you’re gettin'

When the tempest starts to threaten

You always have my love to hide you

You always have my love inside you

Whenever you are feeling some curse

And you get locked into reverse

Then just send up a flare and I’ll find you

Or anytime your engine won’t start

From running on a broken heart

Remember that the past is behind you

Cara mia, if you’re ever lost at sea

Just call on me

You always have my love to guide you

When you give more than you’re gettin'

When the tempest starts to threaten

You always have my love to hide you

You always have my love inside you
