The Secret
Sash! Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's a secret 'bout your love
That always keeps me thinking of
How we ease each others pain

Only when I feel you near
You take away my deepest fear

You put a spell on my heart
But I am not calling for any redemption

And the secret still remains
And I want you not to reveal
How you make feel
How I have been touched by your love

So you keep the key
And I keep on playing my part
Not knowing the game
And the secret will remain

These thoughts they haunt me every night
Visions covering my mind
Cause I know you can't be far

Just the thought that you are mine
Makes cold wind shiver down my spine

You put a spell on my heart
But I am not calling for any redemption

And the secret still remains
And I want you not to reveal
How you make feel
How I have been touched by your love

So you keep the key
And I keep on playing my part
Not knowing the game
And the secret will remain





And the secret will remain
