Feelin' so low, you wouldn't want to know
So I'm keeping my troubles to myself
There's things in me you'd never like to see
So I'm keeping my troubles to myself

So you always like me best
When I was playing the jester
My smile's not to deceive
I only give what I know you'll receive
And I'm feeling so low, but I'll feel worse if you go
So I'm keeping my troubles to myself

Yes I'm keeping my troubles to myself, dear
I've learned that I lost to many charms
In the past, cause of being, to straight forward
Now I'm not saying, it's wrong to hide the truth, I believe is right
I can't get to hasty with you my dear
I can't afford to lose you like the rest
You see, you mean too much to me, and if I lose you now
May took me, more than, a good twenty years to find you
I can't afford to wait another

The river is wide and so is my pride
And the tears that I hide will float away
With you by my side I can feel satisfied
So I won't risk running you away

So you always like me best
When I was playing the jester
My smile's not to deceive
I only give what I know you'll receive
And I'm feeling so low, but I'll feel worse if you go
So I'm keeping my troubles to myself

So you always like me best (look here!)
When I was playing the jester (ha ha ha!)
My smile's not to deceive
I only give what I know you'll receive
And I'm feeling, I'm feeling so low, but, but I'll feel worse if you go
So I'm keeping my troubles to myself
Yeah, yeah, and
And I'm feeling so low, I'll feel worse, I'll feel worse if you go
So I'm keeping my troubles to myself
