It's the diagnosis that arrives too late It's the dramatic pause that gives it away It's the one true love that burns every bridge but still keeps looking back It's the fountain of life that just ran dry It's the photograph that always makes you cry but you still keep it by your side It's the love letter that you spend hours writing then delete it because it is far too frightening To tell the truth about love To tell the truth about love is too hard And I'll keep your secret I'll take your secret with me Yeah, I'll keep your secret I'll take your secret with me It's the one promise that I won't break I tried to keep them all but life got in the way It's like living your whole life wearing your stage smile It's the blots in memory where important information lies The feeling of saying goodbye when your heart is screaming no It's the feeling of letting go when you want to fight for this love To tell the truth about love is too hard To tell the truth about love is too hard And I'll keep your secret I'll take your secret with me Yeah, I'll keep your secret I'll take your secret with me To tell the truth about love is too hard, Yeah To tell the truth about love is too hard But I'll keep your secret I'll keep your secret with me Yeah I'll keep your secret with me I'll take your secret with me
