In My Secret Life Lyrics by Leonard Cohen

In My Secret Life Lyrics

    I saw you this morning
    You were moving so fast
    Can't seem to loosen my grip
    On the past
    And I miss you so much
    There's no one inside
    And we're still making love
    In my secret life.

    I smile when I'm angry
    I cheat and I lie
    I'll do what I have to do
    To get back
    But I know what is wrong
    And I know what is right
    And I die for the truth
    In my secret life.

    Hold on, hold on my brother
    My sister hold on tight
    I finally got my orders
    I'll be marching through the morning
    Marching through the night
    Moving 'cross the borders
    Of my secret life.

    Look through the papers
    Makes you want to cry
    Nobody cares if the people
    Live or die
    And the dither (?) wants you thinking
    That's it's either black or white
    Thank God it's not that simple
    In my secret life.

    I bite my lip
    I buy what I'm told
    From the latest hit
    To the wisdom of old
    But I'm always alone
    And my heart is like ice
    And it's crowded and cold
    In my secret life.
