I saw you this morning,
|
You were moving so fast.
|
Can't seem to loosen my grip,
|
On the past.
|
And I miss you so much,
|
There's no one in sight.
|
And we're still making love,
|
In my secret life.
|
|
I smile when I'm angry.
|
I cheat and I lie.
|
I do what I have to do,
|
To get by.
|
But I know what is wrong,
|
And I know what is right.
|
And I'd die for the truth,
|
In my secret life.
|
|
Hold on, hold on, my brother,
|
My sister, hold on tight.
|
I finally got my orders,
|
I'll be marching through the morning.
|
Marching through the night,
|
Moving 'cross the borders,
|
Of my secret life.
|
|
Looked through the paper,
|
Makes you want to cry.
|
Nobody cares if the people,
|
Live or die.
|
And the dealer wants you thinking,
|
That it's either black or white.
|
Thank God it's not that simple,
|
In my secret life.
|
|
I bite my lip.
|
I buy what I'm told.
|
From the latest hit,
|
To the wisdom of old.
|
But I'm always alone,
|
And my heart is like ice.
|
And it's crowded and cold,
|
In my secret life
|
