I'm in the dark, I'd like to read his mind

But I'm frightened of the things I might find

Oh, there must be something he's thinking of

To tear him away

When I tell him that I'm falling in love

Why does he say

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

I try so hard not to get upset

Because I know all the trouble I'll get

Oh, he tells me tears are something to hide

And something to fear

And I try so hard to keep it inside

So no one can hear

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Oh, he wants me, but only part of the time

He wants me if he can keep me in line

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Oh, hush, hush, shut up now, voices carry

Oh, hush, hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Oh, hush hush, darling, she might overhear

Oh no, voices carry

He said shut up

He said shut up

Oh God, can't you keep it down, voices carry

Oh, voices carry

I wish he would let me talk
