Keeper Of The Key

You have gone and yet I'm still your prisoner
Althought you're with your new love I'm not free
For you have placed a lock around my heart dear and you are the keeper of the key
Love locked inside like mine burns constantly please darling please come back to me
Let's lock our hearts together for a lifetime for you are the keeper of the key
[ piano ]
Love locked inside like mine...
