Found at Mississippi State University Libraries. (This is a new resource to me, so I'm not sure the link will work.) YOU'VE STOLEN THE KEY TO MY HEART Words, Mort Green. Music, Art Gillham. Chicago: Ted Browne Music Co., 1919. 1. I once owned a cute little mansion and lived in it all by myself, Till one day a queer little wizard, a mischievous meddlesome elf, Just opened the door to my heart, dear, and ushered you in there to stay. You ransacked the place, furnished up ev'ry space, then you carried the key away. CHORUS: You have stolen the key to my heart, dear, and hidden it well away. Since then I'm a captive forever to bow at your will and obey. With love you filled up each compartment. Happiness came with cupid's sweet dart. Then you tucked in affection, and for love's own protection, you've stolen the key to my heart. 2. You built me a wonderful shrine, dear, to kneel at and worship each day. Each stick and each stone was affection; each window, a bright golden ray. Your love was the shrine of devotion, and my love the pilgrim at pray'r. You entered my heart and you filled ev'ry part with a love that is sweet and rare. |
