Family Secret

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 the jasmin run wild

She was young and he was a child

And 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, just let it be

I know the 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

Suspicion, rising up like dragonflies

They say there's a story to tell

And it's 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, yeah, yeah, 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, 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

Keep it in the family now

It's the family secret, ooh, ohh, family secret

Keep it in a, keep it in a family way

Whoa, keep it in a family, family secret

Keep it in a family secret
