| Why must I meet you in a secret rendezvous?
|
| Why must we steal away to steal a kiss or two?
|
| Why must we wait to do the things we want to do?
|
| Why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why?
|
| Wish we didn’t have to meet secretly
|
| Wish we didn’t have to kiss secretly
|
| Wish we didn’t have to be afraid
|
| To show the world that we’re in love
|
| Till we have the right to meet openly
|
| Till we have the right to kiss openly
|
| We’ll just have to be content to be in love secretly
|
| Why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why?
|
| Wish we didn’t have to meet secretly
|
| Wish we didn’t have to kiss secretly
|
| Wish we didn’t have to be afraid
|
| To show the world that we’re in love
|
| Till we have the right to meet openly
|
| Till we have the right to kiss openly
|
| We’ll just have to be content to be in love secretly |
