Oh,
jealous me and careless you,
the odds were just too great.
I couldn't take those lonely nights.
You made me sit and wait.
I thought I'd seen the last of you
when you walked out of sight.
Instead I see you in my dreams each night.
So the keys in the mailbox,
come on in.
I'm sitting here wishing, dear,
I had your love again.
I'll never even ask you where you've been.
Oh, the keys in the mailbox,
come on in.
I said I'd rather be alone than share your company.
I said don't come around at all if you want more than me.
But sitting here alone,
I can't deny the flame that burns.
I'd gladly take you back on any terms.
So the keys in the mailbox,
come on in.
I'm sitting here wishing, dear,
I had your love again.
I'll never even ask you where you've been.
Oh, the keys in the mailbox,
come on in.
Oh, the keys in the mailbox,
come on in.
