Keep It A Secret
by: Jay Jay JohansonYou know I'm not a single man
But anyway you think you can
Come up to me and make a try
By saying make this a night to remember
What you said to me
What you did to me
What you wanted me to do
What you said last night
When you came up tight
What was I supposed to do
I don't know what made you believe
My simple heart could be so weak
That I could fall for your offence
In saying make this a night to remember
What you said to me
What you did to me
What you wanted me to do
What you said last night
When you came up tight
What was I supposed to do
Don't worry, don't worry
