Keep a few secrets
just for yourself
something you know
or saw or did
something you’ll never tell
And when someone asks…
(Someone always asks…)
Smile
not a big smile
just a little one
just enough to make them wonder
And when they ask again…
(They will ask again…)
Shrug a bit
shake your head slightly
and smile
just a little smile
a secret smile
Everyone should keep a few secrets
don’t you think
