Some things should be kept secret
And I've been keeping it all this time
So it would serve no real purpose to tell you
It hurts when you say goodbye

'Cause though I like confiding in you
I've already told you too much
I'm gonna do the right thing for once

I know you're already spoken
For so I hope I can keep it down
I won't win your heart unfairly
So I'll just carry the torch around

'Cause that's my biggest inspiration (ooh-la-la-la)
I don't have to tell anyone (ooh-la-la-la)
I'm gonna do the right thing for once

I'm gonna do the right thing for once
'Cause I can't afford to disturb something so delicate
Just for the rush of watching your eyes lighting up

It's tearing me up (oh, la, la, la)
I guess being only your friend has to be good enough
I want the rush (oh, la, la, la)
Of knowing that I did right thing for once

Do the right thing
Do the right thing
Some things should be kept secret
And I've been keeping it all this time
