Keep It A Secret Lyrics

It's okay if you need to pretend for all of your friends
That you don't even miss me
If that's what helps you sleep at night
And it's alright if you need to be mean
And blame me for everything
And swear that you don't want me
If that's what helps you keep your pride

Cuz I know when you close your door
And I'm not there to make dinner for
And you have to eat on your own again
And you have to sleep all alone again
You know
And you know I know
You'll be wanting me
But I'll keep it a secret
If you need it to be

So it's okay not to see me at all and screen out my phone calls
And say you never loved me
If that's what gets you through the day
And it's alright if you found someone new
To try to make love to
To make sure you forget me
If it's easier to be that way

Cuz I know when she's in your bed
And she can't do the things I did
You'll close your eyes and you'll pretend
But that won't be enough and that's when
You know
And you know I know
You'll be wanting me
But I'll keep it a secret
If you need it to be
