Lyrics

[00:12.93] At last the secret is out,
[00:16.19] As it always must come in the end,
[00:25.99] The delicious story is ripe to tell
[00:32.53] To tell to the intimate friend;
[00:39.08] Over the tea-cups and into the square
[00:42.48] The tongues has its desire;
[00:45.25] Still waters run deep, my dear,
[00:48.70] There's never smoke without fire.
[00:51.74] Behind the corpse in the reservoir,
[00:55.26] Behind the ghost on the links,
[00:58.18] Behind the lady who dances
[01:01.39] And the man who madly drinks,
[01:16.55] Under the look of fatigue
[01:19.37] The attack of migraine and the sigh
[01:29.40] There is always another story,
[01:32.59] There is more than meets the eye.
[01:42.33] For the clear voice suddenly singing,
[01:45.54] High up in the convent wall,
[01:49.14] The scent of the elder bushes,
[01:51.95] The sporting prints in the hall,
[01:55.18] The croquet matches in summer,
[01:58.75] The handshake, the cough,
[02:03.08] The kiss, the kiss, a kiss
[02:09.12] There is always a wicked secret,
[02:12.15] A private reason for this.
