Oh jealous me and careless you The odds were just too great I couldn't stand those lonely nights You made me sit and wait I'd thought I'd seen the last of you When you walked out of site Instead I see you in my dreams each night The key's in the mailbox, come on in I'm sitting here wishin' dear, I'd had your love again And I'll never even ask you where you've been The key's in the mailbox, come on in But I said I'd rather be alone Than share your company I said don't come around at all If you want more than me But sitting here alone I can't deny the flame that burns And I'd gladly take you back on any terms The key's in the mailbox, come on in I'm sitting here wishin' dear, I'd had your love again I'll never even ask you where you've been Oh the keys in the mailbox, come on in Oh the keys in the mailbox, come on in
