Looking back, it was such a vivid image
I was on my own
Kept thinking she would be waiting for me
To go hold her hand, and then I would go play with her
See, I was on my own
She wouldn't make me cry
Wouldn't throw me down on the ground

Wouldn't tell me lies
Not like them
A secret
Since I was nine
Not our little secret
So I have kept it mine
I'll never tell
I was always alone

She could've been my only friend
I was not the one she was waiting for
This secret
I've kept it mine
Her eyes looked for someone else
But that's OK. I'm fine

This secret
I've kept it mine
Her eyes looked for someone else
Along a burning line
I'll never tell
They'll wanna know
But I'll never tell
