Lyrics

Lost your toy lover boy
In the mirror take a look
You're much older now
You used to be 23
Suddenly the summer ends
And you don't know how
It was endless fun, hit and run
Sweet talk was your middle name
Always on the prowl
Just one dance no romance
Living like an alley cat
And you sure could howl
Your secret's safe with me
You're tired and lonely
The only cure will be love
Your secret's safe with me
Ain't no contender
You got no fist in your glove
Your secret's safe with me
You're searching for someone
Who's got no lies to conceal
Your secret's safe with me
Waiting for someone
Whose eyes will tell you it's real
Whose eyes will tell you it's real
Whose eyes will tell you it's...
Live and learn wait your turn
Don't you know the deepest love
Comes to those who wait
Why be smart hear your heart
Leading you to someone who...
NO it's not too late
Your secret's safe with me
(Your secret's safe with me)
Tired and lonely
The only cure will be love
Your secret's safe with me
(Your secret's safe with me)
Ain't no contender
You got no fist in your glove
Your secret's safe with me
(Your secret's safe with me)
You're searching for someone
Who's got no lies to conceal
Your secret's safe with me
(Your secret's safe with me)
Waiting for someone
Whose eyes will tell you it's real
(Will tell you it's real...)
Whose eyes will tell you it's real
(Whose eyes Will tell you it's real...)
Your secret's safe with me
(Your secret's safe with me)
Tired and lonely
The only cure will be love
Your secret's safe with me
(Your secret's safe with me)
Ain't no contender
You got no fist in your glove
Your secret's safe with me
(Your secret's safe with me)
Searching for someone
Who's got no lies to conceal
Your secret's safe with me
(Your secret's safe with me)
Waiting for someone
Whose eyes will tell you it's real
Your secret's safe with me
(Your secret's safe with me)
