The Clarks

Lock and Key

The Clarks


I Keep It Under Lock and Key 
My World Is Heavy Can You Hear My Plea 
I'm Growing Tired of This Tear-stained Eye 
Sometimes I Wonder Why I Even Try 
So I Keep It Under Lock and Key 
I Guess It Wasn't Really Meant to Be... 
Andf I Keep It Under Lock and Key

I Keep It Behind My Front Door 
My Ears Are Ringing and My Throat Is Sore 
I'm Growing Tired of Lonely Place 
Sometimes I Wonder When I'll See Your Face 
And I Keep It Behind My Front Door 
I Guess You Never Really Know For Sure 
..and I Keep It Behind My Front Door

I Keep It Under Lock and Key 
My Heart Is Heavy and My Legs Are Weak 
I'm Growing Tired of the Lonely Life 
I Want a Child and I Want a Wife

Then I'll Open Up My Front Door 
I'll Tell You When I Know For Sure 
I'll Get Down On My One Good Knee 
And I'll Ask You Will You Marry Me

Then I'll Throw Away This Lock and Key
