A Hard Secret To Keep Lyrics

(Jim McBride - Jerry Salley)

I stay up late and read a lot at night
Lately she's begun to wonder why
She don't know I'm scared that I'll start talkin' in my sleep
You're a hard secret to keep.

Every time she asks were I've been
A cheater's paranoida begins
Scrabblin' for an answer anything she might believe
You're a hard secret to keep.

Chorus:
One slip of the tounges all it would take
Just one little note that I forgot to throw away
The slightest trace of makeup on a shirt that won't come cleanMark Chesnutt - A Hard Secret To Keep - http://motolyrics.com/mark-chesnutt/a-hard-secret-to-keep-lyrics.html
You're a hard secret to keep.

I never meant for you to touch my heart
Never meant to take one night this far
How much longer can I live this double life I lead
You're a hard secret to keep.

Chorus:
One slip of the tounges all it would take
Just one little note that I forgot to throw away
The slightest trace of makeup on a shirt that won't come clean
You're a hard secret to keep.

I wonder if she feels you every time she touches me
You're a hard secret to keep...
