YOU HOLD THE KEY

You hold the key
You hold the key
I want the future now
But you hold the key.

This door, swinging both ways, like the future hinging on the past.
Locked up, I'm on the outside while inside my role is being cast.

Am I too blind to wait and see?
I want the future now - you hold the key.
You hold the key.

These days, you treat her well, ends are not justified by means.
Goodbyes, kissing the cheek, cut out the love-making scenes.

Am I too blind to wait and see?
I want the future now - you hold the key.
You hold the key.

It's tough to say what I mean and mean what I say when you're hiding me in your pocket.
The past is the past, let the future be now - you've got the key to unlock it.

Breathe deep, then close your eyes, I could be your wishing well,
Dust off your crystal ball, you can still kiss and fortune-tell.

Am I too blind to wait and see?
I want the future now - you hold the key.
You hold the key.
I want the future now - you hold the key.

You hold the key
You hold the key
I want the future now
But you hold the key.
