Maybe It's No Secret Songtext
I used to run
Into any arms that'd have me.
Summers of love --
When the summertime surrounds me.
But only a fool
Lays claim to that which can never be owned.
Dank though I am,
There must be a reason,
And I'd sure like to know.
Where do I go
Now that I don't have no money?
Oh, that I'd known
All the secrets of my twenties.
I watched you float
Down rivers, dressed up like a joke.
Heaven above,
I'm just too wasted to go.

Maybe it's no secret:
It's a dangerous time to be young.
Dressed up like a dream,
Calling to me,
Said, "Baby, I just can't stand up."

I walk alone --
I don't have no lights to guide me.
Days, they get long.
Lord, I pray someone might find me.
That ain't enough
And your singing voice gets cold.
The letters I wrote,
Well, I don't believe them anymore.

There's those that call our love weakness,
And say, "Maybe we ain't all that young."
Dressing up like a dream
Came natural to me.
It's not something I'm soon to give up.
