December, I was lost in darkness that I couldn't shake

Called you in California and you answered right away

You answered right away

You picked up right away

You were workin' at the table that your father made

You were gonna teach guitar to half the kids across LA

All across LA

Half the kids across LA

You're the best-kept secret in Silver Lake

I talked about my misery, you called it pain of pain

How we let it pile on until we go insane

Till we go insane

Until we go insane

You're the best-kept secret in Silver Lake

Oh, you can sing and you can really play

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)

You're the real thing

Your heart's in the right place

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)

When we hung up, I was lifted, turned my head up to the rain

Shortest day of winter, but the light found me again

Found me again

The light came rollin' in

Yeah, you're the best-kept secret in Silver Lake

Oh, you can sing and you can really play

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)

You're the real thing

Your heart's in the right place

You're the best-kept secret in Silver Lake

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)

You're the best-kept secret in Silver Lake

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)

You're the best-kept secret in Silver Lake

You're the best-kept secret in Silver Lake

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)

(Ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da)
