All my deepest feelings are naked to your eyes
You do not answer
All my song and bluster can never quite disguise
The timid dancer
Chorus: Dancing on a clock, clinging to a rock
Of sweet emotion
I am just a lock
You are just the key made to open me
Once I had a lover much older than today,
Young as tomorrow:
Opened every portal and then went on his way
My song is sorrow
Chorus
Bridge: And now I see a world to explore
Beyond your eyes I am afraid
Somehow I feel like giving you more,
And yet, my tries are left unmade
My enthusiasm has frightened some before;
I now expect it
If you can take my giving, I ask for nothing more
Please, don't reject it
Chorus
Bridge
Verse 1
Chorus
I am just a lock
You are just the key, will you open me?
