I Couldn’t Keep It To Myself

[Intro: Tony! Toni! Toné!]
I couldn't keep it to myself
I couldn't keep it to myself
I couldn't keep it to myself
I couldn't keep it to myself

[Verse 1: Raphael Saadiq]
When I met you, I couldn't believe my eyes
Now I'm with you, life is full of surprise
Never thought we would be holdin' hands
Tell me somethin' - was this part of your plan?

[Pre-Chorus: Raphael Saadiq]
I can't believe how good it felt
I tried to keep it to myself
I know I said I wouldn't tell my friends

[Chorus: Raphael Saadiq & Tony! Toni! Toné!]
Had to tell somebody
I couldn't keep it to myself
I had to tell somebody
I couldn't keep it to myself
Had to tell somebody
I couldn't keep it to myself
I had to tell somebody
I couldn't keep it to myself

[Verse 2: Raphael Saadiq]
When we laid down, and made sex so nice
I knew we would be doin' this all night
I never ever felt so personal
The way you ride me, keeps me talkin' more

[Pre-Chorus: Raphael Saadiq]
I can't believe how good it felt
I tried to keep it to myself
I know I said I wouldn't tell my friends

[Chorus: Raphael Saadiq & Tony! Toni! Toné!]
Said I would not tell my friends, yeah
I couldn't keep it to myself
Had to tell somebody
I couldn't keep it to myself
Ooh, and I told everybody
I couldn't keep it to myself
I had to tell somebody
I couldn't keep it to myself

[Bridge: Raphael Saadiq & Tony! Toni! Toné!]
When I started bumpin', you started boomin'
Bumpin', boomin', bumpin', boomin'
When I started bumpin', you started boomin'
Bumpin', boomin', bumpin', boomin'
When I started bumpin', you started boomin'
Bumpin', boomin', bumpin', boomin'
When I started bumpin', you started boomin'
Bumpin', boomin', bumpin', boomin'
Sorry I told everyone

[Pre-Chorus: Raphael Saadiq]
Can't believe how good it felt
I tried to keep it to myself
I know I said I wouldn't tell my friends

[Chorus: Raphael Saadiq & Tony! Toni! Toné!]
Said I wouldn't tell all my friends, baby
I couldn't keep it to myself
Had to tell somebody
I couldn't keep it to myself
I had to tell somebody
I couldn't keep it to myself
Ooh, and I told everybody
I couldn't keep it to myself
Ooh, I told everyone about us, girl
I couldn't keep it to myself
I told everybody in the world
I couldn't keep it to myself
I told my homeboys down the street
I couldn't keep it to myself
I'd tell everybody that I meet
I couldn't keep it to myself
The way you ride me, caress me so tight
I couldn't keep it to myself
Only you can do it right
I couldn't keep it to myself

[Outro: Tony! Toni! Toné! & Raphael Saadiq]
I couldn't keep it to myself
I couldn't keep it to myself
I couldn't keep it to myself
I couldn't keep it to myself
(Ah, ah ah, ah, mmm)
I couldn't keep it to myself
(Ah, ooh, oh, mmm, oh)
I couldn't keep it to myself
(Mmm, ooh, oh oh)
I couldn't keep it to myself
(Tellin' everybody, tellin' everybody, tellin' everybody)
I couldn't keep it to myself
(Ooh, tellin' everybody, yeah yeah)
I couldn't keep it to myself
(Ooh ooh, ooh, I wanna tell everybody down the street)
I couldn't keep it to myself
(All the homeboys that I meet)
I couldn't keep it to myself
(How it felt so good, mmm)
I couldn't keep it to myself
(I feel like a little boy in a candy store, I want it so much more)
I couldn't keep it to myself
(Oh oh oh, oh, oh)
I couldn't keep it to myself
I couldn't keep it to myself
