The Secret Love
THE SECRET LOVE
It's the secret you told never young never old
to her eyes when she wanted to see
and the deepest of you was a thing that she knew
though you hid, it was all meant to be.
In the plan of all things for all beggers and kings
in a manner of speaking it's free
but the price is so high that you sell never buy
and she needs to know how it could be.
There's a song you have heard and she sings every word
you must sing them along in her key
and her voice soft and clear is the sound you will hear
through the rest of your life willingly.
If you touched her you'd die or melt into the sky
so you hide everything that you know
from her eyes that have seen all that it's ever been
when she looked then you let it all show.
She's the dream in the night and the dream in daylight
and the dream is where ever you go
like a mist in your mind and you never can find
any end to the dream that you know.
So you hide in your shell every word that you tell
every time that she looks there to see
and she wonders at you what you never can do
how you cling to what never can be.
