Deep down inside
I know I still love him
but he'll never know
'cause I'll never tell
or confide
that I'm thinking of him
and wishing him when I can walk
up to him and say
Baby
what you been doin'
I still love you
like I did
you know
nothing's gonna change it
being the way I am
I keep it hid
Lately I've seen
the look in his eyes
it just breaks my heart
he needs me so much
to leave alone
this moment
oh why can't I walk up
to that old boy and say
Baby
what you been doin'
I still love you
like I did
don't you know
nothing's gonna change it
being the way I am
I keep it hid
Maybe someday
I'll throw off my foolish pride
this ain't no good
watching him die this way
since he's the same guy inside
oh why can't I Why can't I
Walk up to that old boy and say
Baby
what you been doin'
Don't you know I still love you
like I did
oh boy you know
that nothing's gonna change it
being the way I am
I keep it hid
Being the way I am yeah
I keep it way, way down inside
yeah, oh baby
being the way I am
