Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall
If she's gone I can't go on
Feeling two foot small
Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say
Hey, you've got to hide your love away
Hey, you've got to hide your love away
How can I even try?
I can never win
Hearing them, seeing them
In the state I'm in
How could she say to me
"Love will find a way?"
Gather round all you clowns
Let me hear you say
Hey you've got to hide your love away
Hey you've got to hide your love away
Turn my face to the wall
If she's gone I can't go on
Feeling two foot small
Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say
Hey, you've got to hide your love away
Hey, you've got to hide your love away
How can I even try?
I can never win
Hearing them, seeing them
In the state I'm in
How could she say to me
"Love will find a way?"
Gather round all you clowns
Let me hear you say
Hey you've got to hide your love away
Hey you've got to hide your love away

I listened to this about 10 times while reading the lyrics, and was struck deeply by it. It is now one of my favorite songs of all time.
I think this song paints a beautifully sad picture of sadness. Someone crying, for whatever reason. The feeling that people are watching and judging you and feeling insecure and the people saying things like its going to be okay, move on, forget it feels like they are saying "Hide your love away", hide your tears and pain.
About how he tries to fight those people but gives in and allows these people in to "comfort him"
