The Secret - David Nail
All gathered round in our Sunday best after the service on them old church steps
Ain t it funny how the preacher's words
Disappear out here on the curb
Once the weight of an old friend's body and your hands meet
Tending bar up in Syracuse,Momma called when she got the news
Hell, I don t know who she ll miss more, you or me
No, it didn t feel real, no not til now
Behind this long black Lincoln in our little town
Rolling by buildings I never thought again I'd see
And I can t help but think about
all that we could have been
Had you not stayed here and settled for a life with him
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Buried is the secret that was us
I can still see you standing there
Swollen eyes and snow in your hair
And your shaking voice say you couldn t get past the shame
Eight weeks into a nine month ride
Either way it's still a lie
Carrying your child with another man's name
And I can t help but think about
all that we could have been
Had you not stayed here and settled for a life with him
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Buried is the secret that was us
I walk up and shake his hand
tell him just how sorry I am
And what I wouldn t give to have you back
I wonder if you re looking down on
all who is gathered round
Knowing one day I too will find peace
And I can t help but think about
all that we could have been
Had you not stayed here and settled for a life with him
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Buried is the secret that was us
Buried is the secret that was us

Small town Missouri just ain't the life for me.

I still hear your sea winds blowin'
I still see her dark eyes glowin'
She was 21 when I left Galveston
