("The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret")

♪ Well I've got a secret, I cannot say ♪

♪ Blame all the movement to give it away ♪

♪ You've got somethin', I understand ♪

♪ Holding it tightly, caught on command ♪

♪ Leap of faith, do you doubt ♪

♪ Cut you in, I just cut you out ♪

♪ Whatever you do ♪

♪ Don't tell anyone ♪

♪ Whatever you do ♪

♪ Don't tell anyone ♪

♪ I look for reflections, in your face ♪

♪ Canine devotion, time can't erase ♪

♪ Out on the corner, locked in your room ♪

♪ I never believe them and I never assume ♪

♪ Still can't believe there is a lie ♪

♪ Promises promise, an eye for an eye ♪

♪ We've got something to reveal ♪

♪ No one can know how we feel ♪

♪ Whatever you do ♪

♪ Don't tell anyone ♪

♪ Whatever you do ♪

♪ Don't tell anyone ♪

♪ Whatever you do ♪

♪ Don't tell anyone ♪

♪ Whatever you do ♪

♪ Don't tell ♪

♪ I think you already know ♪

♪ How far I'd go not to say ♪

♪ You know the art isn't gone ♪

♪ And I'm taking this all to the grave ♪

♪ Whatever you do ♪

♪ Don't tell anyone ♪

♪ Whatever you do ♪

♪ Don't tell anyone ♪

♪ Whatever you do ♪

♪ Don't tell anyone ♪

♪ Whatever you do ♪

♪ Don't tell ♪
