Verse 1

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.

Chorus 1

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.

Verse 2

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.

Chorus 2

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.

Bridge

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.

Chorus 3

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…Hid

Verse 1

I gotta try, just one more time
To help you-ou believe me-ee
Won’t you look into my eyes
And read my face for lie-hies Em

Then you might see
That my life’s never been
Everythi-ing that I wanted i-it to be-ee-he

Pre-Chorus

But with you I could change this ba-ad luck
With you I could hold my hea-ea-ead up
Sweet darlin’,

Chorus 1

ju-ust this one ti-i-hme
I really need some-a-one to believe in me
Believe in me
Ju-ust this one ti-i-hme
I really need some-a-one to leave it with me
To breathe it with me
To get beneath it with me darlin’
Ju-ust this one time

Verse 2

I gotta say the perfect thing
I can’t make mistakes now-ow-ow

I just gotta read your signs
I gotta write those magic li-hines
So you can hear
God knows I’ve given you
Every reason in this who-ole wide wor-orld to fear me-ee

Pre-chorus

But my love’s a ragin’ river-her
And you trapped it in your ha-a-hands
Sweet darlin’,

Chorus 2

ju-ust this one ti-i-hime
I really need some-a-one to believe in me
Believe in me, ju-ust this one ti-i-hime
I really need some-a-one to leave it with me
To breathe it with me
To get beneath it with me now, darlin’
Ju-ust this one time

Outro

Ju-ust this one ti-i-hime sweet darlin’
Ju-ust this one ti-i-hime
I really need someone (fade quickly)
