Secret Lover

Hey you, my secret lover
Hey you, my dearest friend,
It's been a while I've met you
How is life at your end?

Life has been a bit too tough
For me in this endless race
Seems like I always want to chase
All that I can never get.
And perhaps that sets you wonder
Is that why I love you so?
But I tell you were we together
I would never let you go.

Hey you, my secret lover
Ten years have passed us by
Dreams have been made and broken
But we still stay undefined.

And that sometimes makes me wonder
Will you cry when I die? 
Who would you share your tears with
When I won't be at your side?
And I see you happy with them
You don't seem to notice me
And yet the secret nights we spend
Are the sweetest ever that can be

Hey you, my secret lover
Hey you, my dearest friend
I don't know where we started
I don't know how we'll end.
