Here I sit and watch the crowds go by

Papa da papa papa yeah

But there's only one face I can see

If only they would understand

Papa da papa papa yeah

I'd open the door and let him in

How long can I hide what I'm feeling inside?

My love is a river that's got to make its way into sea

This feeling can't hide, Lord knows I've tried

Beneath the surface

Beneath the surface

I try though I know I'm hanging on a string

Papa da papa papa yeah

You're the only one thing on my mind

Keeps floating to a distant shore

Papa da papa papa yeah

As I go on denying myself

How long can I hide what I'm feeling inside?

My love is a river that's got to make its way into sea

This feeling can't hide, Lord knows I've tried

Beneath the surface

Beneath the surface

Oh, keeps turning round in my mind

Oh, round and round in my mind

Here I sit and watch the crowds go by

Papa da papa papa yeah

But there's only one face I can see

How long can I hide what I'm feeling inside?

My love is a river that's got to make its way into sea

This feeling can't hide, Lord knows I've tried

How long can I hide what I'm feeling inside?

My love is a river that's got to make its way into sea

This feeling can't hide, Lord knows I've tried

Beneath the surface

Beneath the surface

Beneath the surface

Beneath the surface

Beneath the surface
