Skeeter Davis Lyrics
"Secret Love"

(Paul F. Webster - Sammy Fain)

Once I had a secret love
That lived within the heart of me
All too soon my secret love
Became impatient to be free.

So I told a friendly star
The way that dreamers often do
Just how wonderful you are
And why I'm so in love with you.

Now I shout it from the highest hill
Even told the golden daffodills
At last my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret anymore.

Once I had a secret love...
