Rebecca St. James - Secrets Of The Heart Lyrics
Secrets Of The Heart
Written by Eddie DeGarmo & Bob Farrell
MAGGIE:
Pardon me, mister, I don't think I know You
I've never seen You around
Can I give You comfort- I'll tell of Your future
They say I'm the best deal in town
HERO:
Oh, no thank you Maggie - yeah, I know your name
And I also know your comfort never lasts
You drink from a well of a lost lover's passion
But then you're just thirsty again
Come take a taste now of God's lasting water
That comforts your thirst within
MAGGIE:
Hey, how do You know that I'm thirsty at all
I've never been with You but You know my name
I almost feel like You know me too well
Somehow that makes me afraid
CHORUS:
So I ask, how do You know secrets of the heart?
Has my life been written in the stars?
And can You tell me all I've ever done -
All I've ever done?
Secrets of the heart
HERO:
Oh, girl you've runaway to this dark city
To leave your ugly past behind
A father that used you a mother refused you
Don't think that no one saw you cry
MAGGIE:
Oh, stranger who are You to know all my pain
I've only cried alone in the torture of the night
Are You a player? Just tell me the truth
Did You come to help me?
Can I trust You?
[CHORUS]
MAGGIE (spoken):
Hey, sir....can You help me?
secrets of my heart
Can I believe in You?
HERO:
Yeah, I can help you. That's why I'm here.
