"The Key's In The Mailbox" lyrics

"The Key's In The Mailbox"

Oh, jealous me
And careless you
The odds were just too great
I couldn't stand those lonely nights
You made me sit and wait
I'd thought I'd seen the last of you
When you walked out of site
Instead I see you in my dreams each night

Oh, the key's in the mailbox
Come on in
I'm sitting here wishing, dear
I'd have your love again
I'll never even ask you
Where you've been
Oh, the keys in the mailbox
Come on in

I said I'd rather stay alone
Than share your company
I said, don't come around at all
If you want more than me
But sitting here alone
I can't deny the flame that burns
I'd gladly take you back on any terms

Oh, the key's in the mailbox
Come on in
I'm sitting here wishing, dear
I'd have your love again
I'll never even ask you
Where you've been
Oh, the keys in the mailbox
Come on in
Yes, the keys in the mailbox
Come on in
