[Verse 1]
I'm in the dark, I'd like to read his mind
But I'm frightened of the things I might find
Oh, there must be something he's thinking of
To tear him away, eh-aye
When I tell him that I'm falling in love
Why does he say, eh-aye

[Chorus]
Hush hush, keep it down now
Voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now
Voices carry

[Verse 2]
I try so hard not to get upset
Because I know all the trouble I'll get
Oh, he tells me tears are something to hide
And something to fear, eh-aye
And I try so hard to keep it inside
So no one can hear

[Chorus]
Hush hush, keep it down now
Voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now
Voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now
Voices carry
[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Oh, he wants me
But only part of the time
He wants me
If he can keep me in line

[Chorus]
Hush hush, keep it down now
Voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now
Voices carry

[Outro]
Oh, hush hush, so shut up now
Voices carry
Oh, hush hush, keep it down now
Voices carry
Oh, hush hush, darling, she might overhear
Oh no, voices carry
(Hush hush) He said shut up, he said to shut up
Oh God, can't you keep it down?
Voices carry
Oh-no, voices carry
I wish he would let me talk
