ssshhhh, do you want to know a secret?
i can't wait to tell you
that i know something you don't know
i swore i'd tell nobody
but i've just got to let you know

(*)

cross your heart and hope to die
now hold your hands up nice and high
don't cross your fingers don't you lie
now let me look into your eyes so

(chorus)
can you keep a

secret
give your word you'll never tell
can you keep a secret
and promise that you'll never tell
can you keep a secret
can you keep a secret
i'll have to whisper softly
i don't want no one else to know
if i don't tell somebody
i feel like i just might explode

(repeat *)

(repeat chorus)

can you keep a secret (x3)
and promise that you'll never, promise
that you'll never

(repeat chorus to fade)
