A song about trying to find love with someone who doesn't feel the same
Story behind the song
Fell in love with a girl who didn't love me back. Too bad, so sad.
Lyrics
The Secret of Love
words and music by Patrick Thompson
One way love affairs are common
noone knows why they occur
something happens in your mind
it's so hard to endure
and you cannot stop it
if it wants to be unkind
oh you cannot see it
'cause you want to be blind
I'm asking
What is the secret of love
how can I make you mine
this old question has me in tears
and the answer too hard to find
how can there be
such a discrepancy
in the way two people feel
I've been living in a fantasy world
but the end is all too real
Can't you see in my eyes honey
I love you with all my soul
but you don't seem to understand
you just want me to go
I love you
but you can't love me
I'm full of pain and sorrow
all I can do is work it out
and go on 'til tomorrow
asking
What is the secret of love
how can I make you mine
this old question has me in tears
and the answer too hard to find
how can there be
such a disparity
in the way two people feel
I've been living in a fantasy world
but the end is all too real
I'm asking
What is the secret of love
how can I make you mine
this old question has me in tears
and the answer too hard to find
how can there be
such a discrepancy
in the way two people feel
I've been living in a fantasy world
but the end is all too real
I've been living in a fantasy world
but the end.... is all to real.
