I'm Gonna Lock My Heart (And Throw Away the Key)

I'm gonna lock my heart

And throw away the key

I'm wise to all those tricks

You played on meI'm gonna turn my back on love

Gonna snob the moon above

Seal all my windows up with tin

So the love bug can't get inPark my romance right along the curb

Hang a sign upon my heart

'Please Don't Disturb'And if I never fall in love again

That's soon enough for me

I'm gonna lock my heart

And throw the keyAnd it I never tall in love again

That's soon enough for me

I'm gonna lock my heart

And throw away the keyI'll never fall in love again

I'm gonna lock my heart

And throw away the key
