I Keep It Hid

Glen Campbell · Sings the Best of Jimmy Webb 1967-1992 [Raven] [2006]

Deep down inside I know I still love her

But she'll never know 'cause I'll never tell

Or confide that I'm thinkin' of her

And wishing her well

I can't walk up to her and say to her.



Baby, just what you been doing

I still love you like I did

You know that nothing's really changed

But bein' the way I am I keep it hid.



Now lately I've seen the look in her eyes

That just breaks my heart

'Cause she needs me so

Just to lean on right at this moment

Oh why can't I go up to that old love of mine and say.



Baby, just what you been doing

I still love you like I did

You know that nothin's really changed

But bein' the way I am I keep it hid.



Now maybe someday I'll throw off my foolish pride

'Cause this ain't no good

Watching her dying this way

'Cause she's the same girl inside

But why can't I go up to that old love of mine and say.



Baby, just what you been doing

I still love you like I did

You know that nothin's really changed

But bein' the way I am I just keep it...
