Open (open), the door is open
Kicked my pride and let hope in
Open (open), wide open

Trembling hands but I'm not close in
Open, open o-o-pen
I'm wide open o-o-pen

I deadbolt every door
Count the cracks across my floor
Keep my feelings in a drawer
Labelled "later", nothing more

You just ring and ring the bell
Like you know me very well
"Not at home", I tell myself
Then I'm running down the hall

Yeah it hurts, don't get me wrong
Trust is slow and I've been wrong
But your voice is calm and low
Where you lead, I think I'll go

Open (open), the door is open
Kicked my pride and let hope in
Open (open), wide open

Trembling hands but I'm not close in
Open, open o-o-pen
I'm wide open o-o-pen

I don't count the cracks no more
Made you a copy of my door
Socks inside my labeled drawer
Labelled "later" — now it's "yours"

Some nights I reach for the lock
Your hand is there and I stop
Funny how a home begins
With one small key and bigger risks

Yeah it hurts, don't get me wrong
Trust is slow and I've been wrong
But your voice is calm and low
Where you lead, I think I'll go

Open (open), the door is open
Kicked my pride and let hope in
Open (open), wide open

Trembling hands but I'm not close in
Open, open o-o-pen
I'm wide open o-o-pen

I built these walls with my own hands
Brick by brick, plan by plan
Only I can let them fall
And tonight... tonight I let them fall

voice breaks on the last fall

Open (open), the door is open
Kicked my pride and let hope in
Open (open), wide open

Trembling hands but I'm not close in
Open, open o-o-pen
I'm wide open o-o-pen

O-o-pen
The door stays open
