Dirty Little Secret

Story Behind The Song

This song is a snapshot of some of the events that occurred after I met my future wife for the first time. She had preppy sorority friends, and I was a long-haired dude in a travelling band. No one suspected that we would be a match, and we kept our relationship under the radar for a little while.

Song Description

Boy meets girl at a party. It's love at first sight. The girl is there with friends who might not approve of the boy. The boy convinces the girl to sneak away from the party so that they can be alone together under the moonlight. Love is in the air and their lives are forever changed.

Lyrics

Dirty Little Secret

You could?ve sat down next to
Anyone in the room
You chose a chair next to mine
Your friends don?t have to know if we quietly get up & go
Let?s take a walk outside

Come on meet me under the open sky
I want to find out what you look like in the moonlight
And if I have to be
Your dirty little secret, darlin
That?s alright that?s alright with me

Do what makes you feel like you?re alive
Take a leap of faith & dive
Leave the rest up to fate
I?ll be the dream you keep
Your very own conspiracy
I?ll never give you away

Come on meet me under the open sky
I want to find out what you look like in the moonlight
And if I have to be
You're dirty little secret darlin
That's alright that's alright by me

You and I
Come on baby, you could change my life
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, let?s go outside
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
Change my life

Come on meet me under the open sky
I want to find out what you look like in the moonlight
And if I have to be
You're dirty little secret darlin
That's alright that's alright with me
