Lock and Key
slipping in and out of
time
only to try and make
stanzas rhyme
hearing you repeat the same
rhetoric again
but have you not noticed that
lying is a sin?
i have the lock,
and you, the key
so open me up;
set me free.
undoing what's been done;
leaving love
waiting on a voice
from above
my lock; your key
you have the power
let me fly into the sky;
don't wait another hour
my heart; your love
era and era pass
time flew by?
yes, it has.
my heart; your love,
my lock; your key
open love up,
set me free.
