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 been doing
I still love you like I did
You know, nothing's gonna change it
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 boy and say
Baby, what you been doing
I still love you like I did
Don't you know, nothing's gonna change
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
Since he's the same guy inside
Oh why can't I walk up to that old boy and say
Baby, what you been doing
Don't you know I still love you like I did
Oh boy, you know that nothing's gonna change it
But being the way I am
I keep it hid
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 been doing
I still love you like I did
You know, nothing's gonna change it
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 boy and say
Baby, what you been doing
I still love you like I did
Don't you know, nothing's gonna change
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
Since he's the same guy inside
Oh why can't I walk up to that old boy and say
Baby, what you been doing
Don't you know I still love you like I did
Oh boy, you know that nothing's gonna change it
