My Lips Are Sealed

Jim Reeves · Legend Lives On [2005]

(Ben Weisman - Hal Blair - Bill Peppers)



I promise you he'll never know

That once we loved each other so

The past we knew I'll not reveal

My lips are sealed.



My heart may cry with every beat

Without your love I'm not complete

It doesn't matter how I feel

My lips are sealed.



Let there be laughter,

Not one single tear

And ever after

Let your fears disappear.



If you love him as I love you

Forget the past I led you through

Just don't look back it's all concealed

My lips are sealed.



--- Instrumental ---



Let there be laughter,

Not one single tear

And ever after

Let your fears disappear.



If you love him as I love you

Forget the past I led you through

Just don't look back it's all concealed

My lips are sealed...
