Secret
Asia Cruise Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1]
Hear my phone ring at three a.m.
So I pick it up cuz I know its him
He said I just wanna call
Cuz I had a long day and I just wanna hear your voice
He said Im on my way home from a flight
And thought about you all through the night
But the reality is, is hes going back to her
And Im going back to mine

[Chorus]
Cuz hes my secret
And Im his secret
But we both understand that we wont really care
But were not ready to let it go
Cuz hes my secret
And Im his secret
What do you want me to do
What do you want me to say
Fallin in love wasnt part of the plan of the secret

[Verse 2]
He just pulled up to his house
So we gotta hang up for a little while
But before we got off the phone
For the first time he said I love you..I love you
So now what am I supposed to do
What am I supposed to say
Youve got me so confused--Youve got me so confused
How am I going to look my man in his face
What am I gonna do

[Chorus]
Cuz hes my secret
And Im his secret
But we both understand that we wont really care
But were not ready to let it go
Cuz hes my secret
And Im his secret
What do you want me to do
What do you want me to say
Fallin in love wasnt part of the plan of the secret

[Verse 3]
Weve got to figure this out
Cuz were too deep in it now
Cuz we slipped up and fell in love
While we were both with somebody else

[Chorus--Repeat 2x]
Cuz hes my secret
And Im his secret
But we both understand that we wont really care
But were not ready to let it go
Cuz hes my secret
And Im his secret
What do you want me to do




What do you want me to say
Fallin in love wasnt part of the plan of the secret

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Asia Cruise's song "Secret" tell the story of a secret love affair. The song's protagonist is involved in a relationship with a man who is also in a committed relationship with another woman. They communicate with each other at odd hours of the night, and when they do, he confesses his love for her. The singer of the song acknowledges that what they are doing is wrong, and even though they have caught feelings, they understand that they cannot be together.


The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "he's my secret, I'm his secret," each time emphasizing the secrecy of their relationship. They both know that it is inevitable that they will have to let go of each other, but they are not ready to do so because falling in love was not part of the plan. In the last verse, the singer acknowledges that they must "figure this out," but it is clear that they have fallen too deep in love, compounding their predicament.


Overall, Asia Cruise's "Secret" explores the difficulties and pitfalls of a relationship where the love is so strong and pure, but the circumstances are so wrong that they cannot be together. It is a cautionary tale of the dangers of entering into a relationship when you are already committed to someone else.

The beat goes hard but the way they set the song up is intelligent--at first, the beat makes u believe it's a sad song but then it drops a deeper beat and it's suntin different.
