In December I was lost in
Darkness that I couldn’t shake
I called you in California
And you answered right away
You were working at the table
That your father made
You were gonna teach guitar
To half the kids across LA
Oh you’re the best kept secret in Silverlake
I talked about my misery
You called it pain of pain
How we let it pile on
Until we go insane
Oh you’re the best kept secret in Silverlake
Oh you can sing and you can really play
You’re the real thing, your heart’s in the right place
When we hung up I was lifted
Turned my head up to the rain
Shortest day of winter
But the light found me again
Oh you’re the best kept secret in Silverlake
Oh you can sing and you can really play
You’re the real thing, your heart’s in the right place
Oh you’re the best kept secret in Silverlake
