The Key

He is always sorry after
And buys her pretty things
Roses, clothes and crystal
Or lingerie and diamond rings

Her bruises will soon fade
But the scars inside will last
For the rest of her whole life
She will be haunted by her past

At first he loved her gently
But the love has gone bad
Now just about anything
Seems to make him raging mad

She could leave forever
But she won't go away
Something in her forgives him
Until she finds herself she will always stay
