Secret Lyrics

Didn't see then, but I see it now

How you were my example of love

Wanted one day to have my own

Your connection taught me so much

So, when your ground became shaky I too

Couldn't hold my foundation up, no

Now where was I look to

How was I to know love

But it wasn't for you to deal with

But it really stayed with me

Had me challenge everything I believed

Dear mommy and daddy, I'll tell you a secret

This was hurting me

And dear mommy and daddy, I'll tell you a secret

In the depths of my heart, I still believed

Love became a fantasy an unattainable dream

Started to believe nothing has a happily ever after

So, I looked for the hurt and never saw the beauty

What's the use in fighting if it ends in divorce papers?

I wanted to trust in it

I wanted to know it was

Still out there somewhere (Still out there somewhere)

But hope felt like deception

And deception played its game

So, grow your own roots for love

Before it's too late

Dear mommy and daddy, I'll tell you a secret

This was hurting me

And dear mommy and daddy, I'll tell you a secret

In the depths of my heart, I still believed

Dear mommy and daddy, I'll tell you a secret

(You don't have to worry, I'mma be okay)

This was hurting me (I found love, oh yes, I did)

And dear mommy and daddy, I'll tell you a secret

(And we're taking it day by day)

In the depths of my heart, I still believed

(I learned from all my mistakes)
