my secret place

i'm going to take you to

my special place

it's a place that you

like no one else i know

might appreciate

i don't go there with anyone--but

you're a special case

for my special place

for my secret place

people talk to tell you something

or to take up space

guess i'm only talking

to be talking to

your pretty face

i don't talk much to anyone--but

you're a special case

for my special place

my secret place

i was born and raised

in new york city

i'm just getting used to colorado--

oh street bravado

carry me

why did you bring me to

a place so wild and pretty?

are there pigeons in this park--

muggers after dark--

in these golden trees--

in the secret place?

i'm going to take you to

my special place

it's a place no amount of hurt and anger

can deface

i put things back together there

it all falls right in place--

in my special space

my special place

once i saw a film

in new york city

that was shot in colorado--

girl meets desperado

in the trembling mountain trees

out of all of the girls that you see

in bleachers and cafe windows

sitting--flirting with someone

looking to have some fun

why did you pick me?

for the secret place
