America – Hidden Talent lyrics

Written by Gerry Beckley, ©1998
Found on Human Nature.

Just like a person from another world
My eyes can see inside you, little girl
I see things that you don't want to see
I see things you're trying to hide from me

I'm just trying to make you understand
All the ways you can affect this man
From the moment that you came in touch
With the power there to burn so much

You've got hidden talent (yeah)
I bet you're gonna find some hidden talent, oh

You know your past is what's been bugging you
If you're ready girl ... do what you gotta do
Look for your life between the lines
Bad directions and poor designs

You've got hidden talent (hidden talent, yeah)
I bet you're gonna find some hidden talent, oh
Hidden talent (hidden talent, yeah)
Check it out you ... got it, hidden talent, oh

With the advantage of perspective I
See there's more to you than meets the eye
But now the time must come to spread your wings and fly

Yeah (hidden talent) yeah

Hidden talent (hidden talent, yeah)
I bet you're gonna find some hidden talent, oh
Hidden talent (hidden talent, yeah)
Check it out ... you got it, hidden talent, oh

Hidden talent (hidden talent, yeah)
Affair without warning
Hidden talent, mmm (mmm)

Hidden talent (hidden talent, yeah)
I bet you're gonna find some hidden talent, oh
(fade)
