I Want To Tell A Secret


I Want To Tell A Secret

I want to tell a secret,

No, I don't, yes I do,

I want to tell a secret

But I don't know what to do

 

The words are slipping out,

Hold them back or let them go?

The words are slipping out,

They tell a tale that you should know

 

Come here, come close, I'll tell you,

No, I won't, yes I will

I've held this secret for so long,

And now I'm about to spill

 

My cheeks are turning crimson

I could run, I could hide

But I can't listen to my heart

And keep this secret deep inside

 

I must tell you my secret,

No, I don't, yes I do.

Alright you talked me into it

Darling, I love you.
