Secret
STARR Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here we are the two of us together
Taking this crazy chance to be all alone
We both know that we should not be together
'Cause if they found out
It could mess up, both our happy homes

I hate to think about us all meeting up together
As soon as I looked at you it would show on my face
Then they'll know that we've been loving each other
They can never no, oh no, we can't leave a trace

Secret Lovers that's what we are, we shouldn't be together
But we can't let it go, oh no, cause we love each other so

Sittin at home I do nothing all day
But think about you and hope that your ok
Hoping you'll call before anyone gets home
I'll wait anxiously, alone by the phone

How could something so wrong be so right
I wish we didn't have to keep our love out of sight
Living two lives just ain't easy at all
But we gotta hang on and after fall

Secret lovers that's what we are
Trying so hard to hide the way we feel
Cause we both belong to someone else
But we can't let it go, cause what we feel is oh so real
So real

You and me, are we fair
Is this cruel, or do we care
Can they tell what's in our minds
Maybe they've had secret love all of the time

In the middle of makin love we notice the time
We both get nervous cause it's way after nine
Even though we hate it, we know it's time that we go
We gotta be careful, so that no one will know

Secret lovers, that's what we are
Trying so hard to hide the way we feel
'Cause we both belong to someone else
But we can't let it go




'Cause what we feel is oh so real
So real

They know that what they are doing is wrong, and they are aware of the consequences but they can't help the way they feel about each other. They're aware that getting caught would ruin their "happy homes," but they continue to see each other in secret. They struggle with living two lives and trying to hide their feelings from their significant others. In the end, they decide to continue their secret love affair because their feelings for each other are "oh so real."


The lyrics of "Secret" highlight the predicament of couples who fall in love with someone else regardless of the commitments they have made to their partners. It's an illustration of the consequences of infidelity, and the dilemma of choosing between following your heart or staying committed to your partner. The chorus of the song emphasizes the conflict of emotions that both partners are experiencing, as they are torn between their loyalty to their current partners and their love for each other. The ultimate decision to continue the affair despite its consequences is a testament to the power of forbidden love.
