| | | | ||
All men have secrets and here is mine | |||
So let it be known | |||
For we have been through hell and high tide | |||
I think I can rely on you | |||
And yet you start to recoil | |||
Heavy words are so lightly thrown | |||
But still I'd leap in front of a flying bullet for you | |||
So, what difference does it make? | |||
So, what difference does it make? | |||
It makes none | |||
But now you have gone | |||
And you must be looking very old tonight | |||
The devil will find work for idle hands to do | |||
I stole and I lied, and why? | |||
Because you asked me to! | |||
But now you make me feel so ashamed | |||
Because I've only got two hands | |||
Well, I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh | |||
So, what difference does it make? | |||
Oh, what difference does it make? | |||
Oh, it makes none | |||
But now you have gone | |||
And your prejudice won't keep you warm tonight | |||
Oh, the devil will find work for idle hands to do | |||
I stole, and then I lied | |||
Just because you asked me to | |||
But now you know the truth about me | |||
You won't see me anymore | |||
Well, I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh | |||
But no more apologies | |||
No more, no more apologies | |||
Oh, I'm too tired | |||
I'm so sick and tired | |||
And I'm feeling very sick and ill today | |||
But I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh | |||
Oh, my sacred one | |||
Oh | |||
