hold the key
To your own front door, baby
There's a certain kind of comfort
For the old, rich or poor, darlin'
The same kind of security
Honey, you give to me
The whole world can ignore me
As long as you reach out for me
For the shelter, the shelter of your love
Girl, I'd wait a million years
Girl, I'd shed a million tears
If that would surely,
surely keep you, my heart
Yes, darling
Listen, baby
With all eyes I could find
Anything that I own
Yes, darling
You name it and I'll touch it
If it belongs right here in my home, darlin'
The same kind of security
Of being loved is all I'm sure of
What you give so naturally
Is the most assuring thing to me
For the shelter, the shelter of your love
Girl, I'd wait a million years
Girl, I'd shed a million tears, doll
If that would surely, surely keep you mad
Yes, doll oooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo,
ooo, ooo, oooo oooo ooo,
Lemme tell you one more thing, baby
A chain can wear away
If it's left alone to rust, yes, darling
But our chain is so secure
Cause it's coated with so much love,
love, love
There's something kinda wonderful
Knowing wherever you are, baby
You carry me in your mind
So I'll never, never, never
For the shelter, the shelter of your love
Girl, I'd wait a million years
Oh, I'd shed, I'd shed a million tears
But surely, surely, keep you in my heart
Oh, baby
For the shelter,
the shelter of your love
Well, I'd wait, I'd wait a million years
I know you know
I'd shed a million tears, darlin'
If that's what surely, surely keeps you mad
