I had closed the door upon my heart
and wouldn't let anyone in
I had trusted and loved only to be hurt
but that would never happen again

I had locked the door and tossed the key
as hard, and as far as I could
Love would never enter there again
my heart was closed for good

Then you came into my life
and made me change my mind
Just when I thought that tiny key
was impossible to find

That's when you held out your hand
and proved to me I was wrong
Inside your palm was the key to my heart
you had it all along
