What you look like
Snow white and so on
Reminds me of what I can't quite put my finger upon
The key piano and otherwise
Secret upon secret I promise to hide

I love you but I'm gonna keep quiet about it
I love you but I'm keepin' my mouth shut about it

Walking back in to the living room
Where I do nothing like sing
Or play piano until the cow comes home
And when the phone rings
I don't dare answer

I love you but I'm gonna keep quiet about it
I love you but I'm keepin' my mouth shut about it

Outside the window a shower scattered
Drop after drop of sound pitter-pattered
Pitter-pattered, pitter-pattered

The wall is white and streaked and splattered
The pipes are broken, the leak, oh, no matter to me
'Cause I prefer this distraction
When the piano calls off key

I love you but I'm gonna keep quiet about it
I love you but I'm keepin' my mouth shut about it
