Shut the Door and Lock My Heart

Shut the door and lock my heart
another love I'll never start
so much pain with so little gain
Shut the door and lock my heart

Love is a game you seldom win
you want love she needs a friend
before it starts it suddenly ends
Love is a game you seldom win

So many lies I foolishly believed
so many times I succumb to needs
is true love not meant for me
So many lies I foolishly believed

Shut the door and lock my heart
throw away the key and set me free
what if, could of, not for me
Shut the door and lock my heart
