Secret Love Lyrics
Same old story life is so unfair
It's a burden we just have to bare
But I'm with him and you're with her
There's nothin' else to do
Have to hide my secret love for you
Keep the secret people are so unkind
Sneakin' around you could lose your mind
Never free to let 'em see
All that I go thru
Trying to hide my secret love for you
I looked in your eyes
Without sayin' a word
I told you what I am
And I hoped that you heard
Oh yeah
Society won't let me be
The way I want it to
Hard to hide my secret love for you
Oh yeah don't wanna secret love
Can't keep a secret love
I wanna open love
It's a burden we just have to bare
But I'm with him and you're with her
There's nothin' else to do
Have to hide my secret love for you
Sneakin' around you could lose your mind
Never free to let 'em see
All that I go thru
Trying to hide my secret love for you
Without sayin' a word
I told you what I am
And I hoped that you heard
Oh yeah
The way I want it to
Hard to hide my secret love for you
Can't keep a secret love
I wanna open love

Ive heard alot about this song being her being a closet gay. I do think its just metaphor for her "secret love" fair enough shes singin about a him...I could be wrong but listen to her music and shes infact singin alot of being a lesbian and not feelin she can come out but she cant be any other way.
The meaning of this song is pretty straightforward and it's nice coming from a female perspective which seems kind of rare. Girl is with a guy but likes another guy who's with some other girl. She trys to tell him how she feels and wants to be open about it (open love vs. secret love) but she's not sure if he has the same feelings as her; "I looked in your eyes Without sayin' a word I told you what I am And I hoped that you heard".

I'm not sure how it possible to read these lyrics and think it is not about being queer?
