I'm frozen like a photo, a sepia-colored picture
Voices in the hall, line the flower on the wall
Me n Isabella, playin' the piano
Melodies we pen, that may never come again
But oh, when I hear them call, it won't come to no good
There's no way that it could
And though I know I go, 'cause I gotta keep savin' face
So I try to fight it, I deny it, baby, now everyone knows
And I just can't hide it, unrequited, 'cause I want a love of my own
And though we never talk about it, baby everybody knows
Me n Isabella fakin' the piano
But we'll improvise 'til they cut us down to size
Girls in Easter dresses, somebody confesses
I'm wakin' from a dream, life is never what it seems
But oh, when the rumors float, and the weight of the past
Has you tied to the mast
When nobody wants to know, then you gotta keep playin' straight
So I try to fight it, I deny it
Baby, now everyone knows
And I just can't hide it, unrequited
'cause I want a love of my own
But my brutal little truth is the enemy of you
It's a thorn around the rose, and so we'll
Never talk about it, but baby everybody knows
All of the secrets and skeletons hide 'em away
Lock 'em up tight. Up in the attic, and out of my sight
Quiet, I'm livin' a wonderful life. Now everyone knows
Now there wasn't any proof, just a certain ring of truth, so we'll keep the closet closed, and though we never talk about it, baby everybody knows. Everybody knows. Everybody knows. Everybody knows
