Deadline - Secrets lyrics

No-one knows her secret, she's always hid it well Her old man said he'd kill her if she would ever tell What happened behind closed doors that sunny summer day What happened in her childhood when mother was away She left home on the same day she cashed her first pay cheque Made her way to the big town where she could start afresh She made friends and had a life forgot about the past Met a guy and they went out, she hoped that it would last She ain't been home in years since she ran away in tears He made her laugh, he seemed to care and said "I love you" first But he was a drunk and lost his job their marriage hit the dust Is it too late now to get away from what he calls their life When he wants her as a cash point doesn't want her as a wife She ain't been home in years since she ran away in tears The love she craved has died so she hung herself inside
