Dirty Little Secret Lyrics - Afterglow - Sarah Mclachlan

If I had the chance love 

I would not hesitate 

To tell you all things I never said before 

Don't tell me it's too late 

'Cause I've relied on my illusion 

To keep me warm at night 

And I've denied in my capacity to love 

But I am willing to give up this fight 

I've been up all night drinking to drown my sorrows down 

But nothing seems to help me since you went away 

I'm so tired of this town where every tongue is wagging 

When every back is turned 

They're telling secrets that should never be revealed 

There's nothing to be gained from this but disaster 

Here's a good one 

Did you hear about my friend 

He's embarrassed to be seen now 

'Cause we all know his sins 

If I had the chance love 

I would not hesitate 

To tell you all things I never said before 

Don't tell me it's too late 

'Cause I've relied on my illusion 

To keep me warm at night 

And I've denied in my capacity to love 

But I am willing to give up this fight
