Love locked out in all the cold
and rain,
Love locked out may never come
again,
Love locked out and weeping
bitter tears,
But no one ever hears love
calling.
Though we need the precious gift
it brings,
We don't heed the song of love
it sings,
On the door love beats its tiny
wings,
Just love locked out.
A world without love is a world
without life,
A sad world full of gloom,
So please make a place there for
love in your heart,
It does not need much room.
Love is well worth the waiting
for,
When it comes knocking at your
door,
Fling it wide, for love locked
out will come
No more, no more.
