OPENSECRETS

Open secret, pretty thing Small-town talk with a big gold ring You say it's love, I say let's know If you love me, baby, let it show If you love me, let it show Don't leave me dancing in the shadow Round we go, round we go Pretty little secret on a big bright road If you love me, let it shine Don't make me yours between the lines Everybody wants that golden glow But if you love me, baby, let it show Let it show Let it show Don't love me low Let it show Let it show Let it show If it's real love, baby Let it show You loved me open, just not in the light Held me close, then hid me right In your room, I had a name In the street, I was a flame Too much shade, too much sound Too much past to bring around You said love don't need no proof Then kept me sweet like forbidden fruit Baby, don't mind them lines But lines got teeth when they drawn in time You said the world would never know I said that's why it has to show If you love me, let it show Don't leave me dancing in the shadow Round we go, round we go Pretty little secret on a big bright road If you love me, let it shine Don't make me yours between the lines Everybody wants that golden glow But if you love me, baby, let it show Mirror said marvel, mirror said sin Sold little tickets to the war within You said the world would never know I said that's why it has to show If you love me, let it show Don't leave me dancing in the shadow Round we go, round we go Pretty little secret on a big bright road If you love me, let it shine Don't make me yours between the lines Everybody wants that golden glow But if you love me, baby, let it show Say love But love where? Say fair But fair ain't fair Say free But free got rules Pretty lights Same old fools Could love rewrite the page? Could love outrun the stage? Or does it bow when the curtain falls And leave us dancing for them all? If you love me, let it show Don't leave me dancing in the shadow Round we go, round we go Pretty little secret on a big bright road If you love me, let it shine Don't make me yours between the lines Everybody wants that golden glow But if you love me, baby, let it show Open secret, pretty thing Small-town talk with a big gold ring You say it's love, I say let's know If you love me, baby, let it show
