Once I had a secret love that lived within the heart of me,

All too soon my secret love became impatient to be free.

So I asked a friendly star the way that lovers often do

Just how wonderful you are and why I'm so in love with you.

Now I shout it from the highest hill, even told the golden daffodils,

And now my heart's an open door, and my secret love's no secret any more.
