Keeper Of The Key

(Harlan Howard - Wynn Stewart - Lance Guyness - Kenny Devine)



You are the keeper of the key.



You have gone and yet I'm still your prisoner

Although 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

Oh darling, please come back to me

We'll lock our hearts together for a lifetime

And God will be the keeper of the key.

Only you can break the chains that bind me

You alone can end my misery

No one else can dry the tears that blind me

For you are the keeper of the key.



Love locked inside like mine burns constantly

Oh darling, please come back to me

We'll lock our hearts together for a lifetime

And God will be the keeper of the key...
