you`re the key to my life 
rain on the window covers the trace of all the tears 
that i`ve had to waste and now i`m missing you so and i won`t let you go away 

stain on the desktop where coffee cup lay 
and memories of you forever will stay 
and the scent of your perfume and the smile on your face will remain 

and i never gave up hope when things got me down 
but i just bit on my lip and my face began to frown 
`cause that was just my pride and i`ve nothing left to hide 
and now the way is clear and all i want to say is 

all of my life the doors have been closed now 
and all of my dreams have been locked up inside 
but you came along and captured my heart, girl you`re the key to my life yeah 

year after year was blaming myself for what I`d done just thought of myself
i know that you`ll understand that was all my own fault, don`t go away 

and i never gave up hope when things got me down 
but i just bit on my lip and my face began to frown 
`cause that was just my pride and i`ve nothing left to hide 
and now the way is clear and all i want to say is 

all of my life the doors have been closed now 
and all of my dreams have been locked up inside 
but you came along and captured my heart, girl you`re the key to my life

girl you know that i feel for you there ain`t nothing that i wouldn`t do 
stop the thunder and the pouring rain you`re the one that`s gonna stop the pain 
girl you know that i feel for you there ain`t nothing that i wouldn`t do 
stop the thunder and the pouring rain listen to me can`t you hear what i say 

all of my life the doors have been closed now 
and all of my dreams have been locked up inside 
but you came along and captured my heart, girl you`re the key to my life yeah
