KEEP YOUR LOVE LOCKED (DEEP IN YOUR HEART)
(Carole King / Gerry Goffin)

as recorded by Paul Peterson
1962


Don't stay at home when I go away,
Don't waste your time with letters each day.
You can have fun and see everyone you wanna see,
Just keep all your love locked deep in your heart, (deep in your heart)
And don't give the key to anyone else but me!

Don't miss a party, don't miss the dance,
Go on a date if you get the chance!
Give him your hand and I'll understand that's how it should be,
But darling, keep all your love locked deep in your heart, (deep in your heart)
And don't give the key to anyone else but me!

You can be waiting without being lonely,
Just save your love for your one and only!

I won't be mad if you won't resist,
If someone else should ask for a kiss,
Give him the right to kiss you goodnight if it has to be!
But darling, keep all your love locked deep in your heart, (deep in your heart)
And don't give the key to anyone else but me,
And don't give the key to anyone else but me!
