"I Keep It Hid" lyrics

I Keep It Hid

Deep down inside
I know I still love him
But he'll never know
Cause I'll never tell

I'll confide
That I'm thinking of him
And wishing him well
I can't walk up to him
And say to him

"Baby
What you've been doing
I still love you like I did
You know
Nothing's really changed here"
But being the way I am
I keep it hid

Lately I've seen
That look in his eyes
That just breaks my heart
He needs me so
To lean on at this moment
Oh, why can't I
Walk up to that
Old love of mine and say

"Baby
What you've been doing
I still love you like I did
You know
Nothing's really changed here"
But being the way I am
I keep it hid

Maybe someday
I'll throw off my foolish pride
This ain't so good
Watching him die
This way
Cause he's the same guy inside
Oh, why can't I
Walk up to that
Old love of mine and say

"Baby
What you've been doing
I still love you like I did
You know
Nothing's really changed here"
But being the way I am
I keep it hid
