In Private - Dusty Springfield

Take your time and tell me 
Where you lie 
I realise 
That we’ve been found out this time 

We should stay together 
If we can 
But what you’ve planned 
Means there’s a difference between 

What you’re gonna say 
In private 
You still want my love 
We’re in this together 
And what you’re gonna do 
In public 
Say you were never in love 
That you can remember 

So discreet I never 
Tried to meet 
Your friends or interfere 
I took a back seat between 

And what you gonna say 
In private? 
You still want my love 
We’re in this together 
And what you’re gonna do 
In public 
Say you were never in love 
That you can remember 

What you gonna say, ay 
When you run back to your wife? 
I guess it’s just the story of my life 
What you gonna say? 
So take your time 
And tell me 
Where did you learn 
Oh, I may publicise 
That there’s a difference between 

What you’re gonna say 
In private? 
You still want my love 
We’re in this together 
And what you’re gonna do 
In public 
Say you were never in love 
That you can remember 

Tell me what you gonna say 
In private? 
You still want my love 
We’re in this together 
And what you’re gonna do 
In public 
Say you were never in love 
That you can remember 

What you’re gonna say 
In private? 
You still want my love 
We’re in this together 
And what you’re gonna do
