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 wrong
I 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 crazy
chorus
And 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 you
I 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 near
I can't keep this from you
No matter what you say
Anything is better now
Than going through my life this way
[repeat chorus]
And 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 flames
[repeat chorus]
[repeat chorus]
I 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
