Keep It Inside

(album: Affair - 1988)

I never knew how hard it would be
Living without you
Oh!

Ooh, oh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, yes

I just feel like I'm losing you
I have that feeling too
Me too
You know something?

It's all over, and I can't
Keep it inside, keep it inside
Tears are falling from my eyes
And I can't
Keep it inside, keep it inside

Felt hurt so many times
And kept it all inside myself
Thought this would be the same
But now I'm feeling something else

My friends tell me I'll get over you
And I still feel like such a fool
I thought this day would never come
And now it's here
I don't know where the tears keep coming from

It's all over and I can't
Keep it inside, keep it inside
(Whoo!)
Tears are falling from my eyes
And I can't
Keep it inside, keep it inside

No more stiff upper lip
My pride has took a beating

I only use to cry in private
Behind closed doors
Now it doesn't even matter
If I'm in public anymore

It's all over, and I can't
(And I can't, I can't)
Keep it inside, keep it inside
Tears are falling from my eyes
And I can't
Keep it inside, keep it inside
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

It's all over, and I can't
(I can't, I can't, girl, no)
Keep it inside, keep it inside
(Well)
Tears are falling from my eyes
And I can't
Keep it inside, keep it inside
(And I can't)
(Keep it, keep it)

Keep it inside, keep it inside
Keep it inside, keep it inside

Mistake, maybe, breaking up, baby
Mistake, maybe, breaking up, baby

Baby, I'm a man of pride
But this time I can't keep the pain inside

Oh, I just can't deny the emptiness
That's so clear
So I guess I'll keep crying
Till I run fresh out of tears

No, no, I can't
Keep it inside, keep it inside
Tears are falling
Ooh, my tears keep falling down, girl
Crying all the time
'Cause I can't
Keep it inside, keep it inside
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

It's all over
I can't, I can't
Keep it inside, keep it inside

Let's sing it together

I can't, I won't
I can't, I won't
Keep it inside
Ah-ah-ah

It's all over
