Alice Smith Secrets
[Verse 1:]
The morning after,
The only laughter,
Is that which trickles from the night before.
I'm feeling broken,
Words already spoken,
They crumble on her on the floor.
Except for those that I should not have said,
Guarded secrets locked inside my head,
Oh, what did I tell?
Precious gems entrusted to me,
Those words struggling to be free, uncontrolled, from my mouth they fell.
[Chorus:]
Oh, Secrets, some mine, some his, some hers, Secrets
[Verse 2:]
The truth so easy,
Cause I'm so lazy,
They come so naturally;
Moves I told him,
Just where you've been,
Perhaps you should not have told him.
Please in future don't burden me,
With your lies or your secrecy,
I'll deal with my own,
Because from my mouth they fell,
I have trouble keeping things on the DL,
And then the seeds that I've sown.
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
Thought I keep it underneath my hat
But temptation won me over just like that,
Thank you not for the extra guilt I got when you said what you said
I'm just a child, wild and free,
Need some time to take care of me,
Oh...
And take the time to care for number one,
So please in future don't burden me
With your lies and your secrecy,
I'll deal with my own,
Because from my mouth they fell,
I have trouble keeping things on the DL
And then the seeds that I've sown
[Chorus]
