The Key's in the Mailbox Songtext
Oh jealous me and careless you
The odds were just too great
I couldn′t take those lonely nights
You made me sit and wait
I thought I'd seen the last of you
When you walked out of sight
Instead I see you in my dreams each night
So the key′s in the mailbox, come on in
I'm sitting here wishin', dear, I′d have your love again
I′ll never even ask you where you've been
The key′s in the mailbox, come on in
I said I'd rather be 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
So the key's in the mailbox, come on in
I'm sitting here wishin′, dear, I′d have your love again
I'll never even ask you where you′ve been
The key's in the mailbox, come on in
The odds were just too great
I couldn′t take those lonely nights
You made me sit and wait
I thought I'd seen the last of you
When you walked out of sight
Instead I see you in my dreams each night
So the key′s in the mailbox, come on in
I'm sitting here wishin', dear, I′d have your love again
I′ll never even ask you where you've been
The key′s in the mailbox, come on in
I said I'd rather be 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
So the key's in the mailbox, come on in
I'm sitting here wishin′, dear, I′d have your love again
I'll never even ask you where you′ve been
The key's in the mailbox, come on in
