Bernie Sims - Lock and Key Lyrics

She'd decided, so long ago, to never let it in
So much heartache - right from the start
How could she think she'd win
So she locked up her heart everyday

Bad behavior, her Daddy's way
She learned to be on guard
She dreamed a castle - where she was safe
Not everyday was hard
So she locked up her heart everyday

Could life offer shelter and grace
Loving arms, a welcomed embrace
She knew in her bones he must be out there
Someone to love. To cherish, to care

High school years brought strange happenings
New senses came alive
Joy was right there - if she could learn
To take it all in stride
Still she locked up her heart everyday

Now a mother, she knows the world
Accepts the mystery
Balancing love with all the rest
No need for lock and key

Now life offers - shelter and grace
A family's - welcome embrace
Life has provided chances to learn
Kindness has shown her - new ways to turn

Love has never let her down
Love wins every time she's found
Love has never let her down
Love wins every time she's found

Love has never let her down
Love wins every time she's found
Love has never let her down
Love wins every time she's found
