[Lyric] Secrets and Lies (Diana Original Broadway Cast)

[GRAHAM]
They said you would come;
It seemed so absurd

[AIDS WARD PATIENT 2]
We all had our doubts

[DIANA]
Well, I'm a girl of my word
Here, take my hand...
Here, take my hand
We'll have a nice time

[AIDS WARD PATIENT 3]
An honor to meet you

[DIANA]
The honor is mine

[ENSEMBLE]
All pretense falls
Every line blurs
[GRAHAM]
She sees all our pain
And we see all hers

[DIANA, spoken]
I brought along a photographer. I thought some pictures for the papers might -

[AIDS WARD PATIENT 2]
Oh, no, no

[AIDS WARD PATIENT 3]
I couldn't possibly

[DIANA]
But it'll bring attention to your cause

[GRAHAM, sung]
My parents don't know
There's really no way

[AIDS WARD PATIENT 2]
They'll find out I'm sick

[AIDS WARD PATIENT 3]
They'll find out I'm gay
[GRAHAM]
I could lose my new job
Be tossed from my flat

[DIANA, spoken]
Of course - let's forget it

[GRAHAM, sung]
Or how about we chat?
I do like your suit

[DIANA]
Well, how very kind

[GRAHAM]
Perhaps not the collar
I'm sick, but not blind

[DIANA, spoken]
Are you getting good care?

[GRAHAM, sung]
The best anywhere
Although my eyeliner's run low

[DIANA]
Well, no need to fear
I'll send a case here;
[spoken] Makeup is one thing I know
[GRAHAM, sung]
Then like a good chap
Sure, I'll take the snap;
For what is there really to lose?
[joined by overlapping ENSEMBLE] I may be unwell
But I'm handsome as hell
So I bet we get good reviews;
You might think me mad
But the lighting's not bad
Now let's make us some news!

[DIANA]
I'm so glad I came
I enjoyed all your jokes

[GRAHAM]
You always did like sexy, young blokes

[DIANA]
You know, I'll be back
You've opened my eyes
The damage that's done
Through secrets and lies

[ENSEMBLE]
It's time to be done

[GRAHAM]
With secrets and lies...

[AIDS WARD PATIENT 2, spoken]
Actually, I wouldn't mind a photograph

[AIDS WARD PATIENT 3]
Me too

[ENSEMBLE, vocalizing]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah...
