A little secret never meant to reach me
You made them promise, but what fun would that be?
You think you say it and it disappears well
All the things you say, they seem to always
Find a way back to my ears

Here comes trouble down the line
Did you say that you'll be mine?

You've been talkin' in your Chinese whispers
Tell a little secret and they pass it on
Now it's gettin' back to all my sisters
Maybe I'm the girl, or did it come out wrong?

I said, 'Hush, hush', pass it on
Never really know where it started from
But everybody says you want me
So keep those Chinese whispers comin' on

I always hoped I'd get to know you better
Wanna tell you how I feel when we're together
I've heard your whispers now's the time to tell you
But every time I try I just can't make
The words come out to let you know

Here comes trouble down the line
Did you say that you'll be mine?

You've been talkin' in your Chinese whispers
Tell a little secret and they'll pass it on
Now it's gettin' back to all my sisters
Maybe I'm the girl, or did it come out wrong?

I said, 'Hush, hush', pass it on
Never really know where it started from
But everybody says you want me
So keep those Chinese whispers comin' on

Oh, I wanna scream I wanna shout
I wanna let this feelin' out
Let it go, say my name
Come on and say you feel the same

Don't wanna hide what's here inside
But when I feel it comin'
I just got to let you know

Here comes trouble down the line
Did you say that you'll be mine?

I'll be sendin' back your Chinese whispers
Tellin' little secrets and they'll pass it on
Baby I'll be tellin' all my sisters
You're the one I want baby, you're the one

I said, 'Hush, hush', pass it on
Never really know where it started from
But everybody knows you got me
So keep those Chinese whispers comin' on

You've been talkin' in your Chinese whispers
Tell a little secret and they'll pass it on
Now it's gettin' back to all my sisters
Maybe I'm the girl, or did it come out wrong?

Hush, hush, pass it on
Never really know where it started from
But everybody says you want me
So keep those Chinese whispers comin' on
