Been looking through our cardboard box
Of photos old and new
So many loving memories
Of good times shared with you
All those captured moments
A flashback through the years
I studied each one carefully
I even shed some tears
I wanted something different
As your birthday drawing near
Not take another snapshot
Like every other year
Don’t need another photograph
That no one else will see
I’ve locked a loving padlock
To the railings by the quay
The lock is there for all to see
And everyone will know
The memories that I cherish
And the feelings that I show
It represents the love we share
Our love will never falter
I took the keys and closed my eyes
Then threw them in the water
The keys they know the secret
Of what lies within my heart
And while that padlock’s on that rail
I know we’ll never part
