I let a lie come true
I even cared enough to lie
Receive what I transmit
And slowly close your eyes
Yeah, to unlock our locked up love
And set it free
You need a complicated key
You need a key as big as me ..
You were almost on my mind
Yeah, and though I'm doing just fine
I have hurt myself in many ways
Back in nineteenhundredandyesterday
Yeah, I think of you every time
Every time I leave it behind -
Back in nineteenhundredandyesterday
And when I lie in bed
And I'm going through
What's been done and said
It slips into my head
You open up one door
And then you're faced with many more
Yeah, I know all of them well
I keep my questions to myself
You were almost on my mind ...
Hey, I thought I wanted it
Hey, I thought I needed it
To unlock our locked up love
You left the key and then you walked off
