Lyrics

"She's so fair and so fine
And one day she'll be mine."
With those words, I began
My pursuit of you.
Through persistence and time
I won both your heart and mind.
And I loved you with a passion
That was rare as it was true.
But suddenly, you turned the key.
Rejoined the outside world without me.
But, can't you see, you can't be free.
We'll be locked inside our hearts for eternity.

We lived inside these walls.
Read no papers, took no calls.
Left behind the outer world
Of indifference.
There were some who called us lost.
Said, "love always has its cost."
You said their hearts were only filled
With violence.
But suddenly, you turned the key.
Rejoined the outside world without me.
But, can't you see, you can't be free.
We'll be locked inside our hearts for eternity.

You said, "our love's become a lie.
The day has come to say good-bye."
You didn't ask for my opinion
Or for what I had to say.
You said, "our hearts were made to bleed.
Love's a potent, painful seed."
You'd been knowing all along
That it would have to be this way.
But suddenly, you turned the key.
Rejoined the outside world without me.
But, can't you see, you can't be free.
We'll be locked inside our hearts for eternity.
