Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We have no secrets
We tell each other everything
About the lovers in the past
And why they didn't last
We share a cast of characters from A to Z
We know each other's fantasies
And though we know each other better when we explore
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I wish
Often I wish
That I never knew
Some of those secrets of yours
[Verse 3]
The water was cold
The beach was empty but for one
And you were lying in the sun
Wanting and needing no one
Then some child came
You never asked for her to come
She drank a pint of your rum
And later when you told me
You said she was a bore
[Verse 4]
Sometimes I wish
Ofttimes I wish
That I never never knew
Some of those secrets of yours
[Verse 5]
In the name of honesty, in the name of what is fair
You always answer my questions
But they don't always answer my prayers
And though I know you say that it's me that you adore
[Verse 6]
Sometimes I wish
Often I wish
That I never, never, never knew
Some of those secrets of yours
Some of those secrets of yours
Some of those secrets of yours
[Verse 7]
We have no secrets
Tell each other most everything now
