Analysis of The Key to My Life



The first time I looked in your eyes,
I fell in love by surprise.
You're the most beautiful girl to me,
To unlock my life, you're the key.

I never felt this way about a girl,
But you're more gorgeous than a clam's newly-made pearl.
Will you stay with me
And love me for the rest of eternity?

I love you with all my heart.
We shall never part.
As long as you're with me & I'm with you,
Our love will be colored a gentle blue.

I shall love you forever & ever more.
You have unlocked my life.
That is for sure!
