Lyrics
Can't Keep It A Secret
Life can be so surprising
It can leave you sad or smiling
Shout it out, let it out
It never comes tomorrow
Don't try to hide your sorrow
Shout it out, let it out
Cause you're gonna feel something
It might as well be a feeling that'll set you free
Can't keep it a secret
Come release it to me
Shout it out, let it out,
It will set you free
Don't hold it all inside you
Even if you makes you cry too
All night long, it will make you strong
And if sometime I hurt you,
It's your decision
Will you let it go?
Will you let me know?
CH
Cause you're gonna feel something
It might as well be a feeling that'll set you free
Can't keep it a secret
Come release it to me
Shout it out, let it out,
It will set you free
