Mark Chesnutt - A Hard Secret To Keep Lyrics

i stay up late and read a lot at night.
lately she’s begun to wonder why.
she don’t know i’m scared that i’ll start
talking in my sleep.
you’re a hard secret to keep.
and every time she asks me where i’ve been
a cheaters paranoia begins.
scrambling for an answer anything she might believe.
you're a hard secret to keep.
one slip of the tongue's all it would take.
just one little note that i forgot to throw away.
the slightest trace of make-up on a shirt that won't come clean.
you're a hard secret to keep.
i never meant for you to touch my heart.
i never meant to take one night this far.
how much longer can i live this double life i lead?
you're a hard secret to keep.
one slip of the tongue's all it would take.
just one little note that i forgot to throw away.
the slightest trace of make-up on a shirt that won't come clean.
you're a hard secret to keep.
i wonder if she feels you every time she touches me.
you're a hard secret to keep.
