A Hard Secret to Keep

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I stay up late and read a lot at night Lately she's begun to wonder why She don't know I'm scared that I'll start talking in my sleep You're a hard secret to keep [Verse 2] And every time she asks me where I've been That cheater's paranoia begins Scrambling for an answer, anything she might believe You're a hard secret to keep [Chorus] One slip of the tongue's all it would take Just one little note that I forgot to throw away The slightest trace of make-up on a shirt that won't come clean You're a hard secret to keep [Verse 3] I never meant for you to touch my heart Never meant to take one night this far How much longer can I live this double life I lead? You're a hard secret to keep [Chorus] One slip of the tongue's all it would take Just one little note that I forgot to throw away The slightest trace of make-up on a shirt that won't come clean You're a hard secret to keep [Outro] I wonder if she feels you every time she touches me You're a hard secret to keep
