I can't keep this from you
I've held it in so long
It's time to tell the truth
Keeping it from you is wrongI can't keep this from you
It's so simple I'm afraid
When I tell you how I feel
You'll just laugh and call me crazyAnd I can't keep
This love a secret
And I don't want
To go on longing
I just want a chance for me to prove
My love and I can't keep this from youI can't keep this from you
It's hard to breathe in here
I just seem to act the fool
Every time I feel you nearI can't keep this from you
No matter what you say
Anything is better now
Than going through my life this wayAnd I can't keep
This love a secret
And I don't want
To go on longing
I just want a chance for me to prove
My love and I can't keep this from youAnd I love every move you make
Can't you hear every heart you break?
And don't you know when I hear your name?
Just the sound of it shoots me down in flamesAnd I can't keep
This love a secret
And I don't want
To go on longing
I just want a chance for me to prove
My love and I can't keep this from youI can't keep
This love a secret
And I don't want
To go on longing
I just want a chance for me to prove
My love and I can't keep this from youI just want a chance for me to prove
My love and I can't keep this from you
Oh no
I just can't keep this from you
