It really is the best Canadian love song

and every time I hear it, it breaks my heart a little.

Secret Heart, by Ron Sexsmith

secret heart
what are you made of
what are you, so afraid of
could it be, three simple words
or the fear of being overheard
what's wrong?
let her in on your secret heart

secret heart
why so mysterious
why so secret, why so serious
maybe you're, just acting tough
maybe you're just, not man enough
what's wrong?
let her in on your secret heart.

the very secret, you're trying to conceal,
is the very same one, you're dying, to reveal,
go tell her how you feel

secret heart,
come out and share it
this loneliness, few can bear it
could it have, something to do with
admitting that you, just can't go through it alone,
let her in on your secret heart.
