Secret est un single de l’album Bedtime Stories de Madonna.
Il a plus tard été inclus sur ses les compilations GHV2 (2001) et Celebration (2009).
Il a été écrit et produit par Madonna et Shep Pettibone avec qui elle avait collaboré sur l’album Erotica (1992).
Lors de sa sortie, la chanson a été créditée à Madonna et Dallas Austin, tandis que Pettibone sera reconnu comme coauteur seulement à la sortie de la compilation GHV2 Remixed: The Best of 1991–2001 (2001).
La mélodie reprend celle de « Smooth Operator » de Sade.
Things haven’t been the same
Since you came into my life
You found a way to touch my soul
And I’m never, ever, ever gonna let it go
Happiness lies in your own hand
It took me much too long to understand
How it could be
Until you shared your secret with me
Something’s comin’ over, mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over, mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over me
My baby’s got a secret
You gave me back the paradise
That I thought I lost for good
You helped me find the reasons why
It took me by surprise that you understood
You knew all along
What I never wanted to say
Until I learned to love myself
I was never ever lovin’ anybody else
Happiness lies in your own hand
It took me much too long to understand
How it could be
Until you shared your secret with me
Something’s comin’ over, mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over, mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over me
My baby’s got a secret
Mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over, mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over, mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over me
My baby’s got a secret
Happiness lies in your own hand
It took me much too long to understand
How it could be
Until you shared your secret with me
Mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over, mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over, mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over me
My baby’s got a secret
Mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over, mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over, mmm mmm
Something’s comin’ over me
My baby’s got a secret
Mmm mmm, my baby’s got a secret
Mmm mmm, my baby’s got a secret
Mmm mmm, my baby’s got a secret for me
Mmm mmm, mmm mmm, mmm mmm
