lyrics

SECRET LIFE

At first I was impressed
She was really lovely
But bit by bit I saw
That she didn't really love me
And every time I asked for more
I saw her sinful smile
Walk out the door
And I could tell that I’d never know
But I was young
And I didn't know

She had a secret life
She was really lovely
But with a doubting heart
It was hard for her to love me
And in the rain
She bled real hard
I never saw her pain
I'd gone too far
Yeah I could see
This girl would leave a scar
But I was young
And I didn't know

Drown in your secrets my dear
I thought that I knew you
I thought I knew you dear

But bit by bit I saw
The writing on the wall
And all the time I knew
Your secrets and your flaws
And after all
You were all I saw

When I was young
When I was young
A song like this

When I was young
When I was young
A song like this

And then I saw her drift away

A man who most likely grew up listening to the King from his hometown of Paris, and dreaming of the 'Donna' of Ritchie Valens' genius, Higbee has resurrected the spirit of Nashville for New York in his latest LP 'Secret Life.'
