don't ask - don't tell
just keep it to yourself
don't lie - don't cheat
i'm not ready to face to defeat
be still - lay low
nobody needs to know
be sure to deny
cross your heart and hope to die
my fate is in your hands, dear
so please consider this
i'd be ruined if they'd find out
about the night we kissed
don't say a ward
imagine if they heared
don't use my name
don't put my life to shame
be still - lay low
nobody needs to know
be sure - be sly
put on a smile and then deny
my life depends on you, dear
so please consider me
lock you lovely mouth and throw out
that all-important key
it was just one of those things, dear
it was grand but couldn't last
and though i'd love to have you near, dear
our affair is in the past
i ought to paint this town in shadea of you
get on that roller coaster ride
we'd walk the lanes and avenues
if i could have you by my side
my life depends on you, dear
so please consider me
lock you lovely mouth and throw out
that all-important key
my fate is in your hands, dear
so please consider this
i'd be ruined if they'd find out
about the night we kissed
