Secrets

Keep them safely, guard like gold All those secrets never told - Secrets whispered long ago Only you and I can know. Secret loves and secret woes Carried on the wind that blows - Confidences to my ears Hopes and wishes, dreams, and fears, Stories every heart can tell (Keep those secrets, guard them well) - They who told them now are gone Though their mem'ry lingers on. Of those tales I'll never speak Even though my tongue is weak - Hidden there inside my mind No-one else shall ever find. Each who spoke them trusted me Not to ever set them free - You, my conscience, silent stay Keep those secrets every day.
