Secret
Crystalyne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here we are
and there's a lot of things that we could say
But there you go
taking every single word away, and that's okay

Cause in the dark, we've got everything
we could ever need, it's just you and me
Don't need a spark, lighting everything up
cause it's enough, when it's just us

Don't you go telling everyone that you know
You're my secret and we should keep it
Don't you go telling everyone that you know
You're my secret and I want to keep it safe
(I just - I just want you to know)
I want to keep it safe
(I won't - I won't tell a soul)
I want to keep it safe
(I just - I just want you to know)
You're my secret

So can you let me know?
if you think keeping this a secret is impossible
then I can let it go, for you
I just hope it doesn't change
With the lights out, we are the same

Cause in the dark, we've got everything
we could ever need, it's just you and me
Don't need a spark, lighting everything up
cause it's enough, when it's just us

Don't you go telling everyone that you know
You're my secret and we should keep it
Don't you go telling everyone that you know
You're my secret and I want to keep it safe
(I just - I just want you to know)
I want to keep it safe
(I won't - I won't tell a soul)
I want to keep it safe
(I just - I just want you to know)
You're my secret

Don't think that I'm running away
I'm just running out of ways to say;
we could be anything we want
If you just keep this secret with me

Don't you go telling everyone that you know
You're my secret and we should keep it
Don't you go telling everyone that you know
You're my secret and I want to keep it safe

I need you to let me know that
you're my secret and we should keep it
Don't you go telling everyone that you know
you're my secret and I want to keep you safe
(I just - I just want you to know)
I want to keep it safe
(I won't - I won't tell a soul)
I want to keep it safe




(I just - I just want you to know)
You're my secret

Overall Meaning

The song "Secret" by Crystalyne is about the special connection two people can have that they want to keep private. The lyrics refer to a secret relationship, something that's not unknown to many people who'd like to keep their relationship hidden from society or the judgement of others. The singer of the song is giving a warning to their love interest not to tell anyone about their secret, that it's something they want to keep safe, something they want to preserve in private. They also want to make sure that they still feel the same for each other when the lights are on and that they can still feel the same closeness when others are around.


The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "You're my secret, and I want to keep it safe." The singer of the song is trying to emphasize the importance of keeping their relationship a secret as it could easily be destroyed if it becomes public. They also struggle with the idea of revealing their true feelings to the public, something many people can relate to. The singer states that they want to keep the secret relationship intact and preserve the closeness between them and their love interest.


The song's structure and melody reinforce the theme of secrecy, with a slower tempo throughout, creating a dreamy and nostalgic atmosphere that emphasizes the significance of this connection the two individuals have. The repetitive chorus enhances the concept of keeping things simple and straight-forward while conveying the message that their love is one that needs to be preserved in secrecy.

I thought they were too cheesy and poppy before, but then they opened for Courage My Love, and the lead singer has so much awesome stage presence that I ended up enjoying their set immensely

Ya know, pop-rock isn't my usual cup of tea, but I can't help but like Crystalyne. It's catchy, it's upbeat...good tunes!
