Lock Me Up

(album: Big Girls Don't Cry - 1985)

Now everybody's talking about
Living footloose and fences free
They say old fashioned love is out
Independent is the way to be

But freedom comes with lonely nights
And I don't need any more
The day you walk into my life
About what I've been looking for

Lock me up forever
In the chains of your love
Lock me up forever
In the sweet chains of your love

Rock me in your arms tonight
Only just as tight as you please
Keep in mind you're everything, you're right
Take all kinds of liberties

Loving you is my only crime
And I surrender willingly
You know I trust you with this heart of mine
And I'm giving you the only key (only key)

Lock me up forever
In the chains of your love
Lock me up forever
In the sweet chains of your love

If loving you is doing time
There could never be time enough
Lock me up forever
In the chains of love
The chains of your love

Take me deeper into your heart tonight
Deeper with each and every beat
If you never let me out, oh honey, that's alright
Because loving you is all the freedom I'll ever need

(Lock me up forever)
(In the sweet chains of your love)
(Lock me up forever)
(In the sweet chains of your love)
(Lock me up forever)
(In the sweet chains of your love)
(Lock me up forever)
(In the sweet chains of your love)

If loving you is doing time
There can never be time enough
Lock me up forever
Lock me up (Lock me up)
Forever (forever)
And ever in the sweet chains of your love

Chains of love (forever and ever and ever)
(Forever and ever and ever)
(Forever and ever and ever)
(Forever and ever and ever)
Sweet chains of love (forever and ever and ever)
Sweet chains of love (forever and ever and ever)
Sweet chains of love (forever and ever and ever)
Sweet chains of love (forever and ever and ever)
Sweet chains of love (forever and ever and ever)
Sweet chains of love (forever and ever and ever)
Sweet chains of love (forever and ever and ever)
Sweet chains of love (forever and ever and ever)
Sweet chains of love (forever and ever and ever)
