Lyrics

keys to the kingdom

I gave you the keys to the kingdom
To all of its treasure and gold
A hot cup of tea and a warm place to sleep
You're still out there standing in the cold

Why don't you stay
Why don't you stay
Just for a day
Don't run away
Why don't you stay

I opened a pathway to my heart
While all of the guards were asleep
I shined you a light and I waited inside
But you never came calling for me

Were you delayed
Were you afraid
Maybe one day
You won't run away
This time you'll stay

There's so much to live for
So much to live for

Here waits the keys to the kingdom
To all of my treasure and gold
And a precious gemstone, it's the best thing I own
My love to have and to hold
My love to have and to hold
