Can’t Help Myself

[Verse 1]
You ask me to do some strange things
But do nothing in return
I'm like a moth around a candle
I fly too close and I get burned

[Chorus]
Don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I wish I'd never let you know
I can‘t help myself
I don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I should have had the sense to go

[Verse 2]
Must I be a slave to my emotions
Couldn't fate choose someone else
I try to talk to you about my problems
And I end up talking to myself
I've had the biggest hand in my own downfall
'Cause I wanted to believe your lies
They told me you had terminal indifference
And I told them I thought you were nice

[Chorus]
Don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I wish I'd never let you know
I can't help myself
I don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I should have had the sense to go
Whoa-oh-oh
Don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I wish I'd never let you know
I can't help myself
I didn't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I should have had the sense to go
Whoa-oh-oh

[Scat-singing interlude]
Tell me something

[Verse 3]
Every time I feel a little better
Something you do makes it worse
I thought you were the joy that I'd been seeking
But in fact you've become the reverse

[Chorus]
Don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I wish I'd never let you know
I can't help myself
I don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I should have had the sense to go
Whoa-oh-oh
Don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I wish I'd never let you know
I can't help myself
I wish I'd never let you know
I can't help myself
I don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I should have had the sense to go
Whoa-oh-oh

Can't go on like this
Whoa-oh-oh
