we have no secrets

Carly Simon

We have no secrets
We tell each other everything
About the lovers in our past
And why they didn't last
We share a cast of characters from A to Z
We know each other's fantasies
And though we know each other better when we explore

Sometimes I wish
Often I wish
That I never knew some of those secrets of yours

The water was cold
The beach was empty but for one
Now you were lying in the sun
Wanting and needing no one
Then some child came, you never asked for her to come
She drank a pint of your rum
And later when you told me
You said she was a bore

Sometimes I wish
Oft' times I wish
That I never, never knew
Some of those secrets of yours

In the name of honesty in the name of what is fair
You always answer my questions they don't always answer my prayers
And though I know you say that it's me that you adore

Sometimes I wish
Often I wish
That I never, never, never knew
Some of those secrets of yours
Some of those secrets of yours
Some of those secrets of yours
We have no secrets
Telling each other most everything now
