Family Secret lyrics

Sweet breeze

blowin' through a summer dress

seen from a window above

captured in the eyes of love.

Shivers

in the cool forbidden dawn

where the iris and the jasmin run wild

she’s young and he was a child.

And he vanished like July,

some folks, they wondered why,

but old money has its friends.

Ain't it funny how the truth will bend? It's the

family secret, don't pass it on!

Daddy's angel 'til something went wrong. It's the

family secret, just let it be!

I know, the secret of her mystery.

Whispers,

how they sound like raindrops.

Hush, now we'll make it alright,

she's framed by the front porch light.

Suspicion,

rising up like dragonflies.

They say there's a story to tell

and it's buried in the family well.

Now the congregation prays

„save us from our evil ways”, but

old money has its friends.

Ain't it funny how the truth will bend? It's the

family secret.

It's the family secret, don't pass it on!

Daddy's angel 'til something went wrong. It's the

family secret, just let it be!

I know, the secret of her mystery.

It's the family secret,

yeah, yeah, family secret.

It's the family secret, don't pass it on!

Daddy's angel 'til something went wrong. It's the

family secret, just let it be!

I know, the secret of her mystery. Hay,Hay! It's the

family secret, don't pass it on!

Daddy's angel 'til something went wrong. It's the

family secret, just let it be!

I know, the secret of her mystery.

Keep it in the family now!

It's the family secret,

ooh-ohh, family secret.

Keep it in a, keep it in a family way!

Whoa, keep it in a family,

family secret!

Keep it in a family secret!
