lyrics

SECRETLY

It’s the way she smiles that mesmerizes, hypnotizes.
That’s why I feel the way I do.

I keep standing here at the back of the room.
I guess I’ll just love her secretly.

It’s the way she laughs that captivates me, penetrates me.
That’s why I feel the way I do.

I keep saying “hi” like it’s nothing at all.
I guess I’ll just love her secretly.

Leaving words unspoken (They’re written down.)
will leave my heart unbroken. (I’m just a clown.)
When it comes to loving you, (You wear my crown.)
my silence is golden.

It’s the way she smiles that mesmerizes, hypnotizes.
That’s why I feel the way I do.

I keep standing here at the back of the room.
(I keep holding back.)
I guess I’ll just love her secretly.
