Why must I meet you in a secret rendezvous? Why must we steal away to steal a kiss or two? Why must we wait to do the things we want to do? Why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why? Wish we didn't have to meet secretly Wish we didn't have to kiss secretly Wish we didn't have to be afraid To show the world that we're in love Till we have the right to meet openly Till we have the right to kiss openly We'll just have to be content to be in love secretly Why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why? Wish we didn't have to meet secretly Wish we didn't have to kiss secretly Wish we didn't have to be afraid To show the world that we're in love Till we have the right to meet openly Till we have the right to kiss openly We'll just have to be content to be in love secretly
