Key To My Heart

I had closed the door upon my heart
And would let no one come in
I had trusted and I'd been hurt
But it would never happen again
I had locked the door and thrown the key
As hard and as far as I could
Love would never enter there again
My heart was closed for good
Then you came into my life 
And you made me change my mind
Just when I thought that tiny key 
Was impossible to find
That's when you held out your hand
And showed me I was wrong
Inside it was the key to my heart
You'd had it all along!
