Carly Simon - Private Lyrics
(carly simon)Can you be private when the juice is sweetAnd the secret is crimsonCan you be quiet when my hands are heatAnd the riptide rises?Can you be blind and a beggar on your knees?And live on our desire aloneCan you ride the tide in this insanityAnd still keep as still as the shadows?When the cry is so wide on the insideWhen the truth jumps quick to the heartWhen the wind or the stars are violentCan you be silent?Heres a little something that the wizard said:you can kiss, but never tellAll the wisdom you needAnd youll be needing someCan be heard in the mouth of a seashell?ChorusJust the wide grey skyAnd the hunchback moonWill keep our memoriesNot a living soul will remember usThis is just for you and mecause if you;re out with the boys one nightIf you;re out with the boys and theres braggin?If you break, speak and call me your lover,Ill lie, I swear, Ill lie, and it will all be over
