"Do You Want to Know a Secret" é uma canção dos Beatles lançada no álbum Please Please Me, de 1963, e cantada por George Harrison. No Estados Unidos, a canção também foi lançada em single, o que nunca aconteceu no Reino Unido. A canção foi gravada em 11 de fevereiro de 1963 junto com 9 outras canções para o álbum Please Please Me.[1]

"Do You Want to Know a Secret" foi escrita por John Lennon, inspirada em "I'm Wishing",[2] um tema do desenho animado Branca de Neve e os Sete Anões de Walt Disney de 1937, que a mãe de John, Julia Lennon, cantava para ele quando criança.[3][4] Segundo Paul McCartney, a composição pode ser dividida em 50% entre ele e Lennon.[5]

Em 1980, Lennon disse que deu a canção "Do You Want to Know a Secret" para Harrison cantar porque "ela tinha apenas três notas e ele não era o melhor cantor no mundo," mas acrescentou "ele tem melhorado muito desde aquela época."[4] George cantou duas canções no álbum Please Please Me, esta canção de Lennon/McCartney e "Chains" de Gerry Goffin e Carole King. Os Beatles não gravaram uma canção composta por George Harrison até "Don't Bother Me" do álbum With the Beatles.[6]
