The 42nd Street Singers - The Secrets That We Hold Lyrics

Sometimes things are left unsaid
We play a double game
Those nasty thoughts inside our heads
We hide away in shame
Behind the smoke and mirrors
It's all a thin disguise
And now we're in the headlights
Caught naked in our lies

Oh, oh, the secrets that we hold
Oh, oh the lies so big and bold
Oh, oh, oh the secrets that we hold

Crimes of heart that we commit
Are in their hiding place
We run away and don't admit
The truth is hard to face
We keep it oh so quiet
But then the cancer grows
The tales and the deception
Will eat away our souls

Oh, oh, the secrets that we hold
Oh, oh, the tales we bought and sold
Oh, oh, oh the secrets that we hold

Deep within the family
All tangled up in lies
Mothers, daughters, fathers, sons
Estranged until we die
Estranged until we die

Some things are confidential
We have to be discreet
Better not disclose it all
To everyone we meet
Thoughts so dark and dirty
Are left inside our heads
The deepest of desires
The endless trail of beds

Oh, oh the secrets that we hold
Oh, oh the ones that can't be told
Oh, oh, oh the secrets that we hold

Oh, oh the secrets that we hold
Oh, oh the ones that can't be told
Oh, oh, oh the secrets that we hold
