you hide me
like a secret you want to keep to yourself
because what would everyone think
no one wants to play the fool
not even you
you make no indication that you know me
like i'm just a stranger in the bar who you stop to have a quick conversation with
before moving on to talk to one of your friends who doesn't know about me
you're constantly looking around you
wondering who may see us together
and run and tell that same friend
you can't stand by me for too long because then everyone will find out
like a secret stranger
i'm a secret no longer
