Love Poem: Secret Lover

Secret Lover

I've kept this secret many years 
And when I see you it's so perfect, perfect
Can we just forget everything for this one night

Let's leave these same old tired words
And admit we are meant for each other

I need you darling, this night, like I need air to breathe  
Or do we end this game, this torture, this forever
Oh, the heart will tell us

The heart will tell
Let's forget about life and let go of this secret
Oh, the heart will tell us
We'll be okay because we have each other, dear
We have each other 

A secret love I kept in my heart  
A whisper drifting in my dream each night
Can we just forget everything for this one night
And just hold each other in love's sweet embrace
Oh, the heart will tell us

The heart tells if we take a chance or keep this secret game we play  
Oh the heart will tell us if we can be true lovers in the open, my dear
Lovers in open

Oh, I cannot spend another day 
I cannot imagine one other day
And will not

The heart tells  
We'll be okay because we have each other, my dear
The heart will tell how you take me to the blue sea and the azure up above
The heart will tell us if we should part and run away from us
Only the heart will tell if we will be okay because we have each other
We have each other, dear

I cannot go on like this, can you
