Lyrics
The Key?s In The Mail Box
I?ve been working hard all week
Still trying to make ends meet
But I?ve been thinking about you every day
When it gets to be too much
I know you will get in touch
When I hear your voice I?m going to say
I?ll leave the key in the mailbox, go on in
When I get home from work tonight we?ll get into some lovin?
Well it?s been so long I don?t remember when
I left the key in the mailbox to let you in
Now the years have come and gone
But our sweet love still lingers on
Deep inside my heart you?ve always stayed
And when I wake in the morning light
To find your arms around me tight
I still recall the way I used to say
I?ll leave the key in the mailbox, go on in
When I get home from work tonight we?ll get into some lovin?
Well it?s been so long I don?t remember when
I left the key in the mailbox to let you in
I?ll leave the key in the mailbox, go on in
When I get home from work tonight we?ll get into some lovin?
Well it?s been so long I don?t remember when
I left the key in the mailbox to let you in
I left the key in the mailbox to let you in
