Lock & Key
In the long light of early JulyIn the summer heat he asked me to be his wifeHe said, take my hand and for the rest of my lifeI'll be at your sideIt's you and me in the by and byHe said, long have you been a bud in bloomWith sunkissed, blushing ivory croonSo let the wind whip the green grass into dunesMy love for you runs through and throughForever cannot come too soonThe summer left and came November cloudsAnd when it all had fallen to the groundWaiting for the sun to come back aroundI meant to lift him up, not tie him downI am lost but once was foundGood times, they came and went awayBy and by we began to frayAnd it was clear to see that he had swayedThat first summer seemed so far awayBut I'm still here and not afraidSo wind whip the green grass into dunesForever's fading out of viewLetras de cancionesMy ivory skin still croonsMy love for him goes through and throughHe's had my hand and then he set it freeStill got my heart hidden away from meI can't walk away, I won't let it beMy love is under lock and keyMy love is under lock and keyMy love is under lock and key
