Secret Garden

Music: Bruce Springsteen

Lyrics: Bruce Springsteen

Lyrics

She'll let you in her house if you come knockin' late at night, she'll let you in her mouth if the words you say are right, if you pay the price, she'll let you deep inside, but there's a secret garden she hides She'll let you in her car to go drivin' round, she'll let you into the parts of herself that'll bring you down, she'll let you in her heart if you got a hammer and a vise, but into her secret garden, don't think twice You've gone a million miles, how far'd you get to that place where you can't remember and you can't forget She'll lead you down the path, there'll be tenderness in the air, she'll let you come just far enough so you know she's really there, then she'll look at you and smile, and her eyes'll say she's got a secret garden, where everything you want, where everything you need, will always stay a million miles away
