Love Locked Inside

Write your name in sand and snow

Watch it blow away

Write your name in blood and rain

And see it leave a stain upon my soul

We've got Father Time, we've got Mother Earth

Somehow love is all we crave

Painted you with the colors of the night

Then I watched you fade away

Love's locked inside of my heart

Love's locked inside

Safe and forever waiting

And there it shall remain

Thaw the ice in these brittle veins

And melt this arctic soul

I pray alone to a child like God

Let me see your face 'fore I'm old

My heart is hard and heavy

With the burden of un-given love

Think I loved you deeper that the ocean blue

When I saw the stars at night

I thanked them all for you

Love's locked inside of my heart

Love's locked inside

Safe and forever waiting

And there it shall remain

Write your name in sand and snow

Write your name in blood and rain

Thaw the ice in these brittle veins

Melt this arctic soul

Love's locked inside

Silent wish for what I thought will be divine

Safe and forever, safe and forever

So this is the fate that time has chosen to be mine

A hope that's not to be fulfilled

Silent wish for what I thought divine

I will keep it here for you deep down inside myself

I'd rather keep it here for the ages to behold

Than give it away to someone else

Love's locked inside of my heart

Love's locked inside

(Silent wish for what I thought will be divine)

Safe and forever waiting

And there it shall remain

Love's locked inside of my heart

Love's locked inside of my heart

Love's locked inside of my heart

(Safe and forever)

Love's locked inside
