Annie Lennox
Paint a Rumour (Long Version)
[Verse 1]
Paint a rumour
What's it gonna spread?
Paint a rumour
See the place go red
I could tell you something
Promise not to tell
I could tell you something
Promise not to sell
[Chorus]
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
[Verse 2]
I have heard a whisper
I have heard a whisper
What did it say?
I have heard a whisper
Make it go away
Don't believe a word of it
Promise not to tell
Don't repeat a word of it
Promise not to sell
[Chorus]
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
[Verse 3]
Paint a rumour
Paint a rumour
See the place go red
I could tell you something
I could tell you something
Promise not to sell
Paint a rumour
Paint a rumour
Make it go away
I could tell you something
I could tell you something
Promise not to sell
Paint a rumour
What's it gonna spread?
Paint a rumour
I could tell you something
Promise not to sell
I could tell you something
Paint a rumour
What did it say?
Paint a rumour
I could tell you something
Promise not to tell
I could tell you something
[Chorus]
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
It's a secret
[Bridge]
Paint a rumour
I could tell you something
I could tell you something
I could tell you something
Promise not to sell
I could tell you something
I could tell you something
I could tell you something
Promise not to tell
I could tell you something
