Lyrics

She’d decided, so long ago, to never let it in.
So much heartache - right from the start.
How could she think she’d win?
So she locked up her heart everyday.

Bad behavior, her Daddy’s way,
She learned to be on guard.
She dreamed a castle – where she was safe.
Not everyday was hard.
So she locked up her heart everyday.

Could life offer shelter and grace?
Loving arms, a welcomed embrace?
She knew in her bones he must be out there.
Someone to love. To cherish, to care.

High school years brought strange happenings.
New senses came alive.
Joy was right there – if she could learn.
To take it all in stride.
Still she locked up her heart everyday.

Now a mother, she knows the world.
Accepts the mysteries.
Balancing love with all the rest.
No need for lock and key.

Now life offers - shelter and grace.
A family’s - welcome embrace.
Life has provided chances to learn.
Kindness has shown her - new ways to turn.

Love has never let her down.
Love wins every time she’s found.
Love has never let her down.
Love wins every time she’s found.

Love has never let her down.
Love wins every time she’s found.
Love has never let her down.
Love wins every time she’s found.
