Lyrics
SECRETS
Copyright ©. Zara Phillips
So you?ve been keeping secrets,
so you?ve been telling lies.
It makes sense now how you live your life,
I too held many till me heart nearly burst,
I gave up secrets for what its worth.
And as we lay beneath her, the tallest angel smiling,
I wanted to console her and make her see,
she needs a witness to carry her load
so those secrets won?t explode.
And I am not going to run from you,
I give you my word.
Secrets gonna harden your heart,
Make you loose your beauty
Gonna loose your spark.
And in the crystal morning waiting by the lake
With the snow still falling, touches her cheek,
She wants to hold you and tell you his name
But those secrets keep her chained.
And I know you look on the streets like me
Just too see his face
Secrets gonna harden your heart,
Make you loose your beauty
Gonna loose your spark
Don?t breathe a word of what you found
Wanna keep the walls from falling down
Till you hit the ground.
Secrets, gonna harden your heart,
make you loose your beauty,
loose your spark,
keep you separate,
keep the light out,
make you crazy oooooo
