|
Sweet breeze, blowin' through a summer dress |
|
Seen from a window above |
|
Captured in the eyes of love |
|
Shivers, in the cool forbidden dawn |
|
Where the Iris and Jasmin run wild |
|
She was young and he was a child |
|
He vanished like July |
|
Some folks, they wondered why |
|
But old money has its friends |
|
Ain't it funny how the truth will bend |
|
It's the family secret, don't pass it on |
|
Daddy's angel 'til something went wrong |
|
It's the family secret of her mystery... |
|
Whispers, how they sound like raindrops |
|
Hush now we'll make it alright |
|
She's framed by the front porch light |
|
Uuuhuh, suspicion, raising up like dragonflies |
|
They say there's a story to tell |
|
Buried in the family well |
|
Now the congregation prays |
|
Save us from our evil ways |
|
But old money has its friends |
|
Ain't it funny how the truth will bend |
|
It's the family secret, it's the family secret, don't pass it on |
|
Daddy's angel 'til something went wrong |
|
It's the family secret, just let it be |
|
I know the secret of her mystery... |
|
It's the family secret, it's the family secret |
|
It's the family secret, don't pass it on |
|
Daddy's angel 'til something went wrong |
|
It's the family secret, just let it be |
|
I know the secret to her mystery |
|
Keep it in the family now, behind closed doors |
|
Past the rows of cypress trees, through the Spanish moss |
|
Those old stone walls |
|
It's the family secret, it's the family secret |
