The Secret's In The Telling Lyrics - Dashboard Confessional

The signal is subtle 

We pass just close enough to touch 

No questions, no answers 

We know by now to say enough 

With only simple words 

With only subtle turns 

The things we feel alone for one another 

There is a secret that we keep 

I won't sleep if you won't sleep 

Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given 

We are compelled to do what we must do 

We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden

So I won't sleep if you won't sleep tonight 

Our act of defiance 

We keep this secret in our blood 

No paper or letters 

We pass just close enough to touch 

We love in secret names 

We hide within our veins 

The things that keep us bound to one another 

There is a secret that we keep 

I won't sleep if you won't sleep 

Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given 

We are compelled to do what we must do 

We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden

Until the last trace and this hope 

Is frozen deep inside my bones 

And this broken fate has claimed me 

And my memories for its own 

Your name is pounding through my veins 

Can't you hear how it is sung? 

And I can taste you in my mouth 

Before the words escape my lungs 

And I'll whisper only once... 

There is a secret that we keep 

I won't sleep if you won't sleep 

Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given 

We are compelled to do what we have to 

We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden 

'Cause you will be somebody's girl 

And you will keep each other warm 

But tonight I am feeling cold
