[Verse 1]
Same old story, life is so unfair
It's a burden we just have to bear
But I'm with him and you're with her
There's nothin' else to do
Have to hide my secret love for you

[Verse 2]
Keep the secret people, are so unkind
Sneakin' around, you could lose your mind
Never free to let 'em see
All that I go through
Trying to hide my secret love for you

[Bridge]
I looked in your eyes
Without sayin' a word
I told you what I am
And I hoped that you heard
Oh yeah
Hey, ooh

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Society won't let me be
The way I want it to
Hard to hide my secret love for you
Ow, ow
Oh, oh
Oh yeah, don't want a secret love
Can't keep a secret love, no
I want an open love
