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 cups 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 else to hide And now the way is clear and all I want to say is [Chorus:] 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 (blaming myself) For what I'd done, just thought of myself I know that you'll understand (you'll understand) This 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 [Chorus] 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 going to 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 [Chorus]
