Confidential...Written By: Kelli Elaine?


Strip Me Truth or Dare Are you my dream come true Or just another nightmare When I saw you I knew I brushed against you As I walked away In that contact Our souls made a pact I didn't lose my cool I didn't overreact Secrets, Lies, Alibis Never work Strip me bare Feel the truth I want to give it to you The secrets My story is hidden Deep inside I couldn't ignore my feelings From my feelings I couldn't hide With my heart please don't play I've often been led astray Confusing love with lust One's for keeps One's for play I don't want to play charades I don't want to participate in A lover's masquerade Take it As I give it N'Joy while you receive it When it's real, it's for all the world To see When there are lies to be hid Confidentiality Things are hidden in the dark Secrecy No need to front No need to deny The truth could never be a lie No secrets No lies Give to me What I give to you Respect the woman That stands before you That's all any woman would ask you to do No need for lies The truth always shows up Stares you straight in your eyes Suddenly What she thought she knew What you said to be true Is all a lie Why bother Why try The truth is always the truth The lie is always the lie Strip me bare Feel the truth That's all I want to give to you......
