Tyler Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hush now baby I don't want nobody to know
I'm in love with your soul but you're hot from your head to your toe
Make you feel so right when you know it's wrong
With your hair tied back and my t-shirt on
Hush now baby I don't want nobody to know

We're keeping secrets
You're keeping secrets
I'm keeping secrets
And I love that you love that we love it yeah

I never knew you like this but I can't get you out my mind
Won't you come closer baby let me pull you in and make you mine
It's getting too hard cause we tryin' to pretend
Playing undercover we're supposed to be friends
But I love, love you baby and I can't get you out my mind

We're keeping secrets
You're keeping secrets
I'm keeping secrets
And I love that you love that we love it yeah

Won't you meet, meet, me outside
In the middle of the night




Tell your friends that you're busy tonight
Cause I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you baby

There's an old train track, goes back by the old mill
Where the boys slip away every day to the whiskey still
And they sell shine by the bottle for a five every Saturday
Behind Old Red's Tavern but you didn't hear that from me

'Cause we all act like we don't know
Where daddy got his money for a fishing pole
A Zebco don't come cheap in this day and time
And we all turn the other way
'Cause we've got bills that we can't pay
It's a small town and we know how it goes
It's just another secret that everybody knows

Old man Rainey spends his days at the local store
He pays for little but sometimes leaves with more
But he's always got a story 'bout his boy shipped overseas
And he hasn't been the same since, so we let him be

And we all act like we don't know
That he ain't got nowhere to go
'Cause he's too proud to beg for a handout
And we all turn the other way
'Cause there ain't that much left to say
It's a small town and we know how it goes
It's just another secret that everybody knows

Well, this simple life ain't as easy as it sounds
'Cause we've all got things that we don't talk about

Jenny had a baby last spring, now she's all alone
'Cause old man Rainey's boy, he ain't coming home
Now she drinks from a bottle she got behind Old Red's
'Cause she can't get the sight of him leaving out of her head

And we all act like we don't know
When she comes into Sunday school
With a smile and baby boy in her arms
And we all turn the other way
Say "bless their hearts" and we just pray
It's a small town and we know how it goes
It's just another secret that everybody knows
It's just another secret that everybody knows
