My secret garden's not so secret anymore

Run from the house holding my head in my hands

Feeling dejected, feeling like a child might feel

It all seems so absurd

That this should have occurred

My very only secret

And I had to go and leak it!

My secret garden's not so secret anymore!



No, my secret garden's not so secret anymore!

Run through the fields, down to the edge of the water

Can't stay long, here comes the reason why -

She'll catch me if she can,

Take me by the hand

I'll have to keep on running

And I just can't see the fun in

My secret garden not being secret anymore!



It used to be so easy

On days such as these she'd

Search and search for hours

In among the flowers

I loved it! - I loved her!

Play the fool, act so cruel - I loved it!

Read her book, take a look - I loved her!



It all seems so absurd

That this should have occurred

My very only secret

And I had to go and leak it!

My secret garden's not so secret anymore!
