Our secret love kept me strong,

Although I couldn't say a word.

We always said "Our little secret",

But no one ever heard.

I don't think anyone ever knew

How strongly I felt for you.

Oh they knew that something wasn't right,

But they never guessed the truth.

I loved you for years, our little secret,

Until we parted ways.

But I'll hold our secret in my heart,

Until the end of my days.

You were the first love I ever had,

That never was a lie.

When we whispered "Our little secret",

I knew I'd keep it till I die.

I've still kept our secret all this time,

I've never said your name.

I kept you hidden all this time,

Like this was all some silly game.

But you were never a toy, my darling love,

You mean so much more to me.

I loved you then, I love you now,

"Our little secret" will always be.
