Lyrics
I don’t wanna be
Under lock and key
Wontcha dance with me under the stars
We are free to roam
When love is our home
Can’t live under lock and key
Moments and memories
Haunting these halls
Each day it gets harder to breathe
Faces and photographs
Cling to the walls
And I don’t even recognize me
All of the colors have faded to greys
And I’m just trying to find my way
I don’t wanna be
Under lock and key
Wontcha dance with me under the stars
We are free to roam
When love is our home
Can’t live under lock and key
Pull back the curtains
Shed light on these dreams
Believe in a world you can’t see
Walk through the doorway
Into the wide open
The future uncertain and free
The height of the fall is revealed by the step
That you take when you walk out that door
I don’t wanna be
Under lock and key
Wontcha dance with me under the stars
We are free to roam
When love is our home
Can’t live under lock and key
I don’t wanna be
Under lock and key
Wontcha dance with me under the stars
We are free to roam
When love is our home
Can’t live under lock and key
We are free to roam
When love is our home
Can’t live under lock and key
