(Diane Warren & The Doctor)
|
|
We have to take our chances we have to keep it down
|
We have to steal our kisses when nobody's around
|
We have to hide the tenderness inside
|
To make love on the sly
|
You say it's for the better
|
We have to speak in riddles to cloak the things we say
|
We have to watch our whispers not to give ourselves away
|
We have to run in shadows in the dark
|
We have to stand apart when they see us together
|
|
So we're livin' like silent partners
|
Sneakin' like thieves in the night
|
Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows
|
We're silent partners
|
Never come to the light
|
|
It'll never be right whatever we do
|
You need me too much and I'm just not givin' up on you
|
We have to keep the secret burnin' on our lips
|
We'd both be hurting someone if they caught us here like this
|
We have to bear this burden that we share
|
Knowin' our affair just can't go on forever
|
|
And we're livin' like silent partners
|
Sneakin' like thieves in the night
|
Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows
|
We're silent partners
|
Never come to the light
|
|
It'll never be right whatever we do
|
You need me too much and I'm just not givin' up on you
|
Silent partners
|
I can't let it show, we gotta keep it low, so no one knows
|
We're silent partners
|
Are we ever gonna come to the light?
|
It'll never be right, whatever we do
|
You need me too much and I'm just not givin' up
|
Silent partners
|
Sneakin' like thieves in the night
|
Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows
|
We're silent partners
|
Are we ever gonna come to the light?
|
Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows
|
We're silent partners
|
Sneakin' like thieves in the night
