Chris De Burgh - The Key lyrics

Each time that I hold you, your eyes fill with fear
You can't lose control now, the price is too dear
But love, I have heard you crying in the dark
And the tears on your pillow came bleeding, weeping from your heart

Oh sinner, you're losing all that you had
Your day is in peaces, your night has gone mad
And love cannot touch you, the search has no end
And the one you've forgotten was really your only friend

Then your soul flies to Heaven
You reach out for me
But the door will not open
You've thrown away the key
No the door will not open
You've thrown away the key

Oh stranger beware the life that you lead
Is filled with the warnings you can or will not read
Your castle has fallen, it lies in the sand
I heard your voice calling, I thought I felt the brush of your hand

Oh gambler remember the love that you lend
Will never come back for the game has no ending
The smiler is calling, you turn for the deal
And the aces keep falling with every spin of the wheel

Then you gather your winnings
You're ready to leave
But the door will not open
You've thrown away the key
Oh there's no point in staying
So don't wait to see
For the door will not open
You've thrown away the key
