Keepin' It to Myself

Now and again it occurs to me
Im giving away much more than I ought to be
Oh, yes I am
And today I got a letter
Telling me things that I better not believe
But I dont know if I can
But youre the last in a long line of mistakes Ive made
Im tired of giving my heart and soul to a masquerade
So Im gonna be
Keepin it to myself
Let it build up inside of me
Keepin it to myself
Baby, I tried
Well it makes no difference
I always thought that it was planned
When you get everything a man has to give
You now you got to return it
But every time I build my dreams
Find that love is not all what it seems to be
And I keep getting burned
But from now on Im gonna quit
Before I commit myself
To any woman I meet
And Ill get by without love for a while
And get into something else
Keepin it to myself
Let it build on up inside
Keepin it to myself
Baby, I tried
