Bonnie Raitt - Let's Keep It Between Us lyrics

Let's keep it between us These people meddling in our affairs They're not our friends Let's keep it between us Before the whole door closes And it comes to an end They'll tell you one thing, me another 'Til we don't know who to trust Oh darlin', let's keep it between us Let's keep it between us We've been through too much together That they'll never share They've had nothing to say to us before Now all of a sudden it's as if They've always cared All we need is honesty A little humility and trust Oh darlin', can we keep it between us? I know we're not perfect Then again, so what! Ain't no reason to treat you like a snake Or to treat me like a s*ut And it's makin' me so angry! Could we just lay back for a moment Before we wake up and find ourselves In a game that we both have lost? These easy cures and easy handsomes Somethin' tells me we can't afford the cost There's some things not fit for human ears Some things don't need to be discussed Oh darlin', can we keep it between us? [Instrumental break] They'll tell you one thing, me another 'Til we don't know who to trust Oh darlin', let's keep it between us Let's keep it between us Before the whole thing breaks down And goes too far If we can't settle our differences by ourselves Then we must be worse off than they think we are Back seat drivers don't know the feel of the wheel But they sure know how to make a fuss Oh darlin', can we keep it between us? Can we keep it between us?
