Things to Keep Hidden Songtext
von Catherine Elms

Can love like ours ever last?
Will you still love me if I keep asking?
If I measure every day
Maybe this won′t go away

Over and over
Ashamed of what I want
Over and over
Ashamed of what I want

Why is it such a sin to care?
My heart is hungry and it gasps for air
It wants something it can grasp
Something it knows will last


Over and over
Ashamed of what I want
Over and over
Ashamed of what I want
Over and over
Ashamed of what I want
Over and over
Ashamed of what I
This is what I
This is what I want
I want

Over and over
Until words become only sounds
It scared me
So I swallowed it down
And so I said nothing
Wouldn't open my mouth
Until one day
It all came pouring out
Again and again and again

Darling, don′t you know
This low mood's not becoming on you
Don't breathe a word
Of all that′s spreading through
Stop, hold your tears
Enough - you′ll scare your baby

We all want to be loved
But it's hard-won and always unstable


Didn′t they tell you life's not fair?
Didn′t they tell you life's not fair?
It′s time you learned.
