lyrics

Knock down the door
Let’s find a better way
They can’t keep us apart
By boarding up the place.
Bottle up my feelings
Don’t show anyone
No, no matter what
Like a perfect gentleman

You said the bridge
Would always keep us safe
But then you moved away
And forgot the secret code
Tomorrow
you should try again
But you won’t

I can’t believe the words I said
Glad you knew what I meant
They’ll be no apology
Heart was in the right place
Mouth let the wrong words out,
We both had our doubts
Let's chop down the cherry tree

You said the bridge
Would always keep us safe
So I knew I had to stay
Too afraid to let go
Tomorrow,
I could try again
To find out where you went
Or make plans for me to leave
Break the lock and set me free

You are my
Skeleton key
Every door that I pulled shut
You could open up
Next time I
Tell you what I need,
Either tell me it’s enough
Or bring it home to me

[Bill laughs]

You are my
Skeleton key
Every door that I pulled shut
You could open up
Next time I
Tell you what I need,
Either tell me it’s enough
Or bring it home to me

You are my
Skeleton key
Every door that I pulled shut
You could open up
Next time I
Tell you what I need,
Either tell me it’s enough
Or bring it home to me
