The Key You Left

Official song lyrics: ‘The Key You Left’ by Abu Sayed. Original writing and composition.

I found that little silver piece you hid away
Under the porch light at the end of the day
It unlocks a feeling I have been trying to hold
Warm as a fire when the autumn gets cold
The dust on the dashboard is catching the moon
And I am playing back your favorite little tune
I remember how you leaned across the middle seat
Smiling soft, making my whole heart skip a beat
We left a trail of whispers down the county line
Your fingers tracing circles gently over mine
I know it is past midnight and the town is asleep
But this is a promise I am ready to keep
You left the key to a door in my mind
A sweet kind of trouble that is one of a kind
Now I am turning the lock and I am letting you in
Craving the touch of your skin on my skin
We are burning slow in the dark of the room
Wrapped in the scent of your midnight perfume
The shadows are dancing like waves on the wall
I am listening close just to hear if you call
The jacket you wore is still draped on the chair
And I can still feel the soft ghost of your hair
The embers are glowing, a slow steady heat
We are miles away from a busy paved street
I know it is past midnight and the town is asleep
But this is a promise I am ready to keep
You left the key to a door in my mind
A sweet kind of trouble that is one of a kind
Now I am turning the lock and I am letting you in
Craving the touch of your skin on my skin
We are burning slow in the dark of the room
Wrapped in the scent of your midnight perfume
You left the key to a door in my mind
I have been waiting for a moment like this
Drawn to the edge of an intimate kiss
Shadows are falling and catching the light
Everything we are feeling is perfectly right
And Sayed is forever caught in your flame
I am holding the key you left behind
Just waiting for you to walk through that door
You left the key to a door in my mind
A sweet kind of trouble that is one of a kind
Now I am turning the lock and I am letting you in
Craving the touch of your skin on my skin
