Once I had a secret love
That lived within the heart of me
All too soon my secret love
Became impatient to be free

So I told a friendly star
The way that dreamers often do
Just how wonderful you are
And why I am so in love with you

Now I shout it from the highest hills
Even told the golden daffodils

At last my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret anymore

When I first heard 'Secret Love' I almost fainted, it was so
beautiful.... When we finally got around to doing the
prerecording, Ray Heindorf, the musical director at Warner's,
said he'd get the musicians in about 12:30 so they could
rehearse. That morning I did my vocal warm up, then jumped on my
bike and rode over to Warner's (we lived in Toluca Lake at the
time, which was just minutes from the studio). When I got there,
I sang the song with the orchestra for the first time. When I'd
finished, Ray called me into the sound booth, grinning from ear
to ear, and said, 'That's it. You're never going to do it
better.' That was the first and only take we did.
