Song Lyrics

I understand that no one can find out about us yet.
And I know I'm not content to be your little secret.
One day you'll change, and you won't want to hide me.

I feel it like the rain, you've settled in my bones.
I hear it in a whisper, know I'm not alone.
But this is not enough, and we are not enough.
What I need's an honest love.

This fire in my chest is eating me alive.
And I'm afraid if I can't have you, love you,
I might die!
If I can't hold you, if I can't touch you,
if I can't grow old next to you.

I feel it like the rain, you've settled in my bones.
I hear it in a whisper, know I'm not alone.
But this is not enough, and we are not enough.
What I need's an honest love.

Dick Coburn, Richard Coburn, Vincent Rose, John Schonberger
