David Wilcox - Golden Key lyrics

rate me

from The Nightshift Watchman

..............................................

I used to walk down every road

Holding out a golden key

And I would search the heart of everyone

I was hoping was right for me

And I was searching for a treasure

To fill me deep inside

I was searching for a life-time friend

To walk right by my side

(You know how that goes)

One day I grew so weary

I could not take another step

I sat upon the roadside

And hung my head and wept

And then suddenly I heard a voice

Come from deep within

And as I listened to the sound I found

I was lifted by the wind

It said you've always had a treasure

Living deep inside your soul

And you've always had a life-time friend

And now it's time you know

That the love was only waiting

For your signal to begin

But the golden key you were holding out

You were always holding in

(I used to walk down every single road

I used to walk, I used to walk

I used to hold, I used to hold.....)
