Who needs a captain on a lover's ship
Someone with no clue
Of the destination due
Wow, ain't that a trip
Who needs a diamond on a hand of stone
Someone with a hurt
Who couldn't make it work
A trophy because you slipped
Love can't conquer anything
If it's lost without a trace
You might be tough, you might even be strong
But not when you're in this place

Secret lovers - Get lost in the secrets they tell
They make lovers blind
When they cover every inch of their lies
Secret lovers - It's just your place of mind
A smoke and some wine
Is the life of a black valentine

Who needs the journey on a runaway train
Your ticket isn't worth half of what it hurts
When heartbeats overwork
Who needs redemption from a guiltless crime
Someone carries dreams from seam to seam
Till they tear apart your mind
Love can't conquer anything
If it's hurting in the deep
You'll be awake, you'll twist your fate
That's not someone you should keep

Secret lovers – (chorus-refrein)

This is their lament
For another night they’ve spent
In self-conversation
It's a will they can't oppose
In a letter left they've composed
To repeat the situation
They lie in a loop

Secret lovers – (chorus-refrein)
