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
