(Carly Simon)

[Chorus:]

Can you be private when the juice is sweet

And the secret is crimson

Can you be quiet when my hands are heat

And the riptide rises?



Can you be blind and a beggar on your knees?

And live on our desire alone

Can you ride the tide in this insanity

And still keep as still as the shadows?



When the cry is so wide on the inside

When the truth jumps quick to the heart

When the wind or the stars are violent

Can you be silent?



Here's a little something that the wizard said:

"You can kiss, but never tell

All the wisdom you need

And you'll be needing some

Can be heard in the mouth of a seashell"



[Chorus]



Just the wide grey sky

And the hunchback moon

Will keep our memories

Not a living soul will remember us

This is just for you and me



'Cause if you;re out with the boys one night

If you;re out with the boys and there's braggin'

If you break, speak and call me your lover,

I'll lie, I swear, I'll lie, and it will all be over
