Keepin' It to Myself

Now and again it occurs to me

I'm giving away much more than I ought to be

Oh, yes I am

And then today I got a letter

Telling me things that I better not believe

But I don't know if I can

You're the last in a long line of mistakes I've made

I'm tired of giving my heart and soul to a masquerade

So I'll be

Keepin' it to myself

Let it build up inside of me

I'll be keepin' it (Keepin' it) To myself

Lately, I've tried (Tried, tried, tried, tried, tried and tried)

You know I always thought that it was planned

When you get everything anyone has to give

(Don't, don't don't) You now you've got to return it (Return it)

(Return it) Every time I build my dreams

(My Dreams) Find that love is not all what it seems to be

(Don't, don't, don't, seems to be, seems to be) Yeah, I've been burned

(Burned, burned) So from now I'm gonna quit

Before I commit myself

(To any woman I meet)

I'll get by without love for a while

And get into something else

I'll be keepin' it (Keepin' it) To myself

Let it build up inside of me

Keepin' it to myself

Lately, I've tried (Tried, tried, tried, tried, tried) I've tried, tried

Keepin' it to myself

Keepin' it to myself

Keepin' it to myself

Keepin' it to myself

To myself

Keepin' it to myself

Keepin' it to myself

To myself

Keepin' it to myself

To myself

Keepin' it to myself

Keepin' it to myself

To myself
