Secret
Nefer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Since you came into my life
You found a way to touch my soul
And I'm never, ever, ever gonna let it go
Happiness lies in your own hand
It took me much too long to understand
How it could be
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over me
My baby's got a secret
You gave me back the paradise
That I thought I lost for good
You helped me find the reasons why
It took me by surprise that you understood
You knew all along
What I never wanted to say
Until I learned to love myself
I was never ever lovin' anybody else
Happiness lies in your own hand
It took me much too long to understand
How it could be
Until you shared your secret with me
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over me
My baby's got a secret
Mmm mmm
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over me
My baby's got a secret
Happiness lies in your own hand
It took me much too long to understand
How it could be
Until you shared your secret with me
Mmm mmm
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over me
My baby's got a secret
Mmm mmm
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over, mmm mmm
Something's comin' over me
My baby's got a secret
Mmm mmm, my baby's got a secret
Mmm mmm, my baby's got a secret
Mmm mmm, my baby's got a secret for me
Mmm mmm, mmm mmm, mmm mmm
The first verse of Nefer's song Secret expresses how the singer's life changed for the better after meeting someone special. The person in question somehow managed to touch their soul in a way that no one else had before. The singer pledges to never let go of this newfound happiness. The following lines suggest that happiness is something that lies within ourselves, and it took the singer a long time to understand this. However, the "secret" that the person shared with them helped them realize this truth.
The chorus of the song is catchy and repeats the phrase "something's comin' over me, my baby's got a secret." This implies that there is something mysterious and alluring about this person. The following verse describes how this person helped the singer find their "paradise" again - something that they had thought they lost forever. The person understood the singer better than they understood themselves and helped them find the reasons behind their feelings.
Overall, the song Secret is about finding someone who brings happiness and understanding into your life. It's about realizing that the key to happiness is within ourselves and that sometimes we need someone's help to unlock it. The mysterious "secret" that the person shares is perhaps the realization that we hold the power to our own happiness.
