Secrets
The Moffatts Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you want to love me
I'm gonna need you to trust me
I got no reason to lie
About what's deep inside

Girl, I want you to see me
I promise this is the real me
I know you've been hurt before
But baby, not anymore

I wanna tell you my secrets
Whisper in the dark
Take away the mask and
Let's just be who we are (who we are)
Not just for tonight
For the rest of our lives
Let's not hide
Let's not hide our secrets

Come over let me undress you
I've got something to confess to
About the way that I feel
This has never felt so real

I wanna tell you my secrets
Whisper in the dark
Take away the mask and
Let's just be who we are (who we are)
Not just for tonight
For the rest of our lives
Let's not hide
Let's not hide our secrets

Girl this is just me being me
Ain't that what love's supposed to be

I wanna tell you my secrets
Whisper in the dark
Take away the mask and
Let's just be who we are (who we are)
Not just for tonight
For the rest of our lives
Let's not hide
Let's not hide our secrets

Let's not hide our secrets
Let's not hide our secrets
