Every time you hold me close we meet in secret places
We can't go out on the town cause people know our faces
We've loved each other all these years
We've lived with constant shame and fear
But we'll go on and live our love tonight in secret places

Secret places hidden faces that's all we've ever known
Stolen moments warm embraces we know we just can't be wrong
Why do we have to hide our love when we belong together
Our love is like a ship at sea that's tossed by stormy weather
But hopefully the time will be when you'll belong to only me
Then we won't have to slip around and meet in secret places

Secret places hidden faces that's all we've ever known
Stolen moments warm embraces we know we just can't be wrong
Why do we have to hide our love when we belong together
Our love is like a ship at sea that's tossed by stormy weather
But hopefully the time will be when you'll belong to only me
Then we won't have to slip around and meet in secret places

Jerry Lee Lewis

Jerry Lee Lewis was a leading figure in the popularization of rock & roll during the 1950s. He was first signed to Sun Records in 1956 where he was labelmates with Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, and other early rock artists. Of those musicians, however, he was the only piano player and combined with his heavy-handed playing style, sexually suggestive lyrics, and provocative stage antics he came to epitomize the rebelliousness of the genre.

He rose to international fame for his 1957 versions of the songs “Great Balls of Fire” and “Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On.”

Lewis' popularity rapidly tumbled, however, when in 1958, when at the age of 22, he married his 13-year-old cousin. Though this scandal continued to tarnish his image, Lewis never retired from music. As of October 2015, he continues to perform live.
