Lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics!

Please, lock me awayAnd don’t allow the dayHere inside where I hideWith my loneliness
I don’t care what they say, I won’t stayIn a world without loveBirds sing out of tuneAnd rain clouds hide the moonI’m okay, here I’ll stayWith my loneliness
I don’t care what they say, I won’t stayIn a world without love
So, I wait and in a whileI will see my true love smileShe may come, I know not whenWhen she does, I’ll knowSo baby, until then
Lock me awayAnd don’t allow the dayHere inside where I hideWith my loneliness
I don’t care what they say, I won’t stayIn a world without love
So, I wait and in a whileI will see my true love smileShe may come, I know not whenWhen she does, I’ll knowSo, baby, until then
Lock me awayAnd don’t allow the dayHere inside where I hideWith my loneliness
I don’t care what they say, I won’t stayIn a world without love
I don’t care what they say, I won’t stayIn a world without love
