All my deepest feelings are naked to your eyes.
|
You do not answer.
|
All my song and bluster can never quite disguise
|
The timid dancer.
|
|
Chorus: Dancing on a clock, clinging to a rock
|
Of sweet emotion
|
I am just a lock
|
You are just the key made to open me.
|
|
Once I had a lover much older than today,
|
Young as tomorrow:
|
Opened every portal and then went on his way.
|
My song is sorrow.
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Bridge: And now I see a world to explore
|
Beyond your eyes. I am afraid.
|
Somehow I feel like giving you more,
|
And yet, my tries are left unmade.
|
|
My enthusiasm has frightened some before;
|
I now expect it.
|
If you can take my giving, I ask for nothing more.
|
Please, don't reject it.
|
|

Verse 1

|
Chorus
|
|
I am just a lock
|
You are just the key, will you open me?
