You were moving so fast.
Can’t seem to loosen my grip -
on the past.
And we’re still making love
In My Secret Life.
In My Secret Life.
I smile when I’m angry.
I cheat and I lie.
I cheat and I lie.
I do what I have to do to get by.
But I know what is wrong,
And I know what is right.
And I know what is right.
And I’d die for the truth
In My Secret Life...
In My Secret Life...
...I bite my lip.
I buy what I’m told:
from the latest hit,
to the wisdom of old.
But I’m always alone.
And my heart is like ice.
And it’s crowded and cold.
In My Secret Life."
- Leonard Cohen (1934-2016)
