Locked - Scritti Politti

And when the day is done

It’s little games are lost or maybe won

I’ll close and lock the door and you’ll be there

Yes, when the day is done

The prizes lost or won, oh, then I’ll be home to stay

We’ll love all our past away, just you and me

Just a little smile and all the while

I know how little this all means

People want a part of me

But who they get is never who she seems, who she seems

And when the day is done

I’ve played my party piece for everyone

I’ll close and lock the door and you’ll be there

Just a little pain and then again

You know how little this all means

People want a part of you

But who they get is never who he seems, who she seems

But when I’m with you baby I know just who I am

And no one understands the way that you do, darling

Stepping out each morning I smile and play the part

Of someone strong and smart, it’s make believing, it’s a living

When I’m with you baby I know just who I am

And no one understands the way that you do, yes, darling

I will keep you with me in ribbons and in bows

In ways you’ll never show it’s still believing, it’s a living

And when I come and go

A game that only you and I can know

I’ll turn and lock the door and you’ll be there
