We lead two different lives
Just like two lines that never cross
And here we are together
Standing closer than we are
But we're still standing here untouched
Too scared to make a move
We want so much to touch
And we can't wait forever
We know it's dangerous
For us to be together

How do we ever keep this secret?
How do we keep it in the dark?
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How could we tear ourselves apart?
Why do we keep this love together?
Didn't we know right from the start
That we would have to keep this secret
Or forever stay apart?

I watch you coming to me
Walking in the pouring rain
I can't help looking at you
Wishing I could stay away
So many times I've tried in vain
To close my eyes and pray it goes away
But I can't stop myself from feeling
To let you go would be too much for me to take

How do we ever keep this secret?
How do we keep it in the dark?
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How could we tear ourselves apart?
Why do we keep this love together?
Didn't we know right from the start
That we would have to keep this secret
Or forever stay apart?

Ooh, I can't help thinking
When I look into your eyes
How much I need you
It's so hard to hide

How do we ever keep this secret?
How do we keep it in the dark?
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How could we tear ourselves apart?
Why do we keep this love together?
Didn't we know right from the start
That we would have to keep this secret
Or forever stay apart?

Hmm-mm-
