Bill E. Payne: Music
Secretly (demo)
secretly, secretly I watch you
out in the open don't have to hide
but I take too many chances
with my clandestine glances
can hardly help but stare
at the beauty standing there
that is you
yes it's you
secretly, secretly I admire you
don't need a reason I've got a lot
it's just I keep them to myself
sort of put them on the shelf
in case I need one to remind me that I'm
not so much in love with falling in love
unless it's true
maybe with you
(chorus)
why, you say, so secretly
well I have my reasons
don't want to scare you, make you run away
don't want you to feel crowded anyway
rather have you come to me
come for me
come with me
but that's my little secret
secretly, secretly I want you
guess it's simple chemistry
not my hormones overgrown
your mysterious pheromones
want to hold you like I did that time
since then only in my mind
yes it's true
only with you
(chorus)
