Lyrics: Bruce Mee
Music: Gabrielle de Val
We all have our little secrets
That we sorely try to hide
Misdeeds from all our yesterdays
That burn us up inside
The truth we know we can’t let slip
That darkness in our hearts
And though we try to cage our thoughts
Our conscience tears apart
No matter the regret we feel
That milk has long been spilled
And just like empty promises
No longer can be filled
(CHORUS)
Let sleeping dogs lie
Don’t awaken the beast
Let sleeping dogs lie
Lest the hounds be unleashed
Just let sleeping dogs lie
YEAH!!!
Let sleeping dogs lie
Try to play fair when it’s your turn to deal
Don’t pick at the scab just let the wound heal
Don’t dwell on the past or the signs in the sky
Don’t poke the bear just let sleeping dogs lie
No matter the regret we feel
That milk has long been spilled
And just like empty promises
No longer can be filled
It’s better just to turn the page
Or start another book
There’s no point dwelling on the past
To take another look
