Elton John - Can't Keep This From You lyrics

Music by Elton John

Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

I can't keep this from you

I've held it in so long

It's time to tell the truth

Keeping it from you is wrong

I can't keep this from you

It's so simple I'm afraid

When I tell you how I feel

You'll just laugh and call me crazy

And I can't keep

This love a secret

And I don't want

To go on longing

I just want a chance for me to prove

My love and I can't keep this from you

I can't keep this from you

It's hard to breathe in here

I just seem to act the fool

Every time I feel you near

I can't keep this from you

No matter what you say

Anything is better now

Than going through my life this way

And I can't keep

This love a secret

And I don't want

To go on longing

I just want a chance for me to prove

My love and I can't keep this from you

And I love every move you make

Can't you hear every heart you break?

And don't you know when I hear your name?

Just the sound of it shoots me down in flames

And I can't keep

This love a secret

And I don't want

To go on longing

I just want a chance for me to prove

My love and I can't keep this from you

I can't keep

This love a secret

And I don't want

To go on longing

I just want a chance for me to prove

My love and I can't keep this from you

I just want a chance for me to prove

My love and I can't keep this from you

Oh no I just can't keep this from you
