roddy hart - the secret lyrics
[verse 1]
with luck, you’ll be born neath a blanket of storm
full of fire and lightning and rain
roam carefree and wild, like some vagabond child
with fortune and grace to your name
[verse 2]
and the older you get, the more time you’ll have left
to break rules and throw dreams to the wall
yet you’ll never ask why ’til the day that you die
when the answer won’t matter at all
[chorus]
and you can tell yourself a million secrets
and you can try to hold them in your sleep
but letting go of something true and precious
is the secrеt you will never keep
[verse 3]
i remеmber a time filled with laughter and wine
sketching movements of life until dawn
so each day would be blessed with the hazy success
of the memory perfectly drawn
[verse 4]
with no trace of regret, how i seemed to forget
that the present was there at a cost
for we let the past fade and the future cascade
far too quickly to know what we’d lost
[chorus]
i tried to tell myself a million secrets
i tried so hard to hold them in my sleep
but letting go of something true and precious
was the secret i could never keep
[bridge]
switch on moments you can understand
falls off the hardships of this well worn land
[verse 5]
so look out for the signs, neither sermon nor rhyme
can teach what you learn from your mistakes
don’t believe second chance, avoid bad circumstance
try to recognise phonies and fakes
[verse 6]
and if lessons come free, here’s a lesson from me
don’t allow what you treasure to slip
for it’s no happy ending to wind up pretending
your hands haven’t loosened their grip
[chorus]
and you can tell yourself a million secrets
and you can try to hold them in your sleep
letting go of something true and precious
is the secret you will never keep
it’s the secret you will never keep
