Song lyrics The secret's in the telling by 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 wonŽt sleep if you wonŽt sleep
Because tonight may be the last chance weŽll be given
We are compelled to do what we must do
We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden

So I wonŽt sleep if you wonŽt 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 wonŽt sleep if you wonŽt sleep
Because tonight may be the last chance weŽll be given
We are compelled to do what we must do
We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden

Until the last resilient 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
CanŽt you hear how it is sung?
And I can taste you in my mouth
Before the words escape my lungs
And IŽll whisper only once...

There is a secret that we keep
I wonŽt sleep if you wonŽt sleep
Because tonight may be the last chance weŽll be given
We are compelled to do what we have to
We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden

ŽCause you will be somebodyŽs girl
And you will keep each other warm
But tonight I am feeling cold
