It's so hard to remember
When the things went wrong
Lucy works in the downtown
And the kids are all alone

Johnny is gotta runnin'
His heart's grown cold
It doesn't really matter
That he ever loved before

It's a bit of sacrifice
From you and me
Some things go better baby
It's easy to see

Just a bit of compromise
We're blind to see
Baby you locked the door
And you're the one who's got the key

Johnny stares in the distance
And love's freezin' cold
But no words to tell the truth
No heart unfolds

The car keys on the table
And rain still falls
She turned back and whispered him
She won't stay too long

It's a bit of sacrifice
From you and me
We'll getting better baby
You'll finally see

Just a bit of compromise
As it used to be
Baby you locked the door
And you're the one who's got
The secret key!
