GOLDEN KEY

I used to walk down every road
Holding out a golden key
And I would search the heart of everyone
I was hoping was right for me
And I was searching for a treasure
To fill me deep inside
I was searching for a life-time friend
To walk right by my side
(You know how that goes)
One day I grew so weary
I could not take another step
I sat upon the roadside
And hung my head and wept
And then suddenly I heard a voice
Come from deep within
And as I listened to the sound I found
I was lifted by the wind
It said you've always had a treasure
Living deep inside your soul
And you've always had a life-time friend
And now it's time you know
That the love was only waiting
For your signal to begin
But the golden key you were holding out
You were always holding in
(I used to walk down every single road
I used to walk, I used to walk
I used to hold, I used to hold.....)
