The Key lyrics

from the album LITTLE SWAY

by Crissi Cochrane

why do you never stay?
if I need you, you run away
you leave me standing in the pouring rain
why do I wait for you?

I see you visited my friends
they’re singing ballads of your compliments
if you’re not coming soon around the bend
I’ll be changing my tune

so if you come back, looking for me,
come fast -
tell me you won’t run away no more
cause I’m a lock, baby,
you’re the key
I’m lost -
come and find me
cause I’m what you’re looking for
so don’t make me wait anymore

I saw you just the other day
but as I called to you, you walked away
oh I wanted to put you in your place
but you were nowhere to be found

and now my patience is worn out
from all your silence and all my doubt
but I would give it up to hear you out
oh how I miss the sound

so if you come back, looking for me,
come fast -
tell me you won’t run away no more
cause I’m a lock, baby,
you’re the key
I’m lost -
come and find me
cause I’m what you’re looking for
so don’t make me wait anymore
