When you left I closed your little locket And I sealed fast it with blinding tears Nothing in this whole wide world can break it Though I’ve held it up for all to see for years Many hands have reached out for it’s tiny golden chain Many lips have been tried but cried in vain For our love I’ve sealed within your locket And your locket is my broken heart All the love we knew and shared together All the joy we knew right from the start I have saved and guarded it in your locket So the locket’s nothing but a broken heart For that treasure of mine there is but a single key It’s a love that you used to share with me For our love I’ve sealed within your locket And your locket is my broken heart
