Kouyatethere Is A Secret Between Us lyrics

so sad I had to go

(Kouyate)



a total stranger came between us



until it`s safe no-one will know

(Kouyate)

there is a secret between us



we must keep it to ourselves

(Kouyate)

all the love we shared between us



we can`t tell nobody else

(Kouyate)

there is a secret between us



1

staring hard at my tv

but that blue flicker doesn`t comfort me

it hurts so much

the memory of her tender touch

in my dreams I call



a man-of-war on glory road

a native girl whose tale was never told

now we must live a lie

to point blank accusations I

have denied it all



I live for the day

I live for the hour

when I`m free to speak your name

and reveal to the world - our secret



2

underneath that bowl of stars

she lay me down to heal my battlescars

she taught me love

the one thing I knew nothing of

and she made me see



I had to leave that scattered place

I kept the secret to avoid disgrace

but there will come a time

when I return to make her mine

in a world so free



I live for this day

I live for this hour

when I`m in your arms again, yeah

and we both yield to love`s power



(bridge)



be patient now we can`t resist

the racing storm of prejudice



hate ... has ... silenced ... love ...



we took the village by surprise

no time to see the strangers hate filled eyes

for this sad consequence

they had no defense

in the midst off all that pain

I heard her call

"Kouyate is my name

love conquers all"



solo



I live for this day

I live for this hour

when I`m in your arms again

and we both yield to love`s power



so sad I had to go

(Kouyate)

with so much love to share between us



until it`s safe no-one will know

(Kouyate)

there is a secret between us
