Secrets Of The Heart - Michael Tait, Rebecca St. James

Maggie:

Pardon me, mister, I don’t think I know you

I’ve never seen you around

Can I give you comfort — I’ll tell of your future

they say I’m the best deal in town

Hero:

Oh, no thank you, Maggie — Yeah I know your name

And I also know your comfort never lasts

You drink from a well of a lost lover’s passion

But then you’re just thirsty again

Come take a taste now of God’s lasting water

That comforts your thirst within ooh

Maggie:

Hey, how do you know that I’m thirsty at all

I’ve never been with you but you know my name

I almost feel like you know me too well

Somehow that makes me afraid

(Chorus)

So I ask, how do you know secrets of my heart

Has my life been written in the stars

And can you tell me all I’ve ever done — all I’ve ever done

Secrets of the heart

Hero:

Oh, girl you’ve runaway to this dark city

To leave your ugly past behind

A father that used you and a mother refused you

Don’t think that no one saw you cry

Maggie:

Oh, stranger who are you to know all my pain

I’ve only cried alone in the torture of the night

Are you a player Just tell me the truth

Did you come to help me

Can I trust you

(Repeat chorus)

So I ask, how do you know secrets of my heart

Has my life been written in the stars

And can you tell me all I’ve ever done — all I’ve ever done

(Repeat chorus)

(spoken)

Hey, sir… Can you help me

Secrets of my heart

Can I believe in you

Hero:

Yeah, I can help you.

That’s why I’m here.
