Open Up The Door Songtext
von Jonah Smith

Sam is singing gospel in his Sunday best
But it won′t be long before they have him under arrest
He's got a little something to get off his chest
You know change is almost here

She always wondered what was underneath the mask
But what she found made her wish she never asked
She′s got a broken gauge; she's running out of gas
On the highway tonight

Open up the door to find that your lover's gone
She took off running down to New Orleans and left you all alone
Hey, it′s not as bad as it seems
She may have broke your heart but she left all your dreams
Open up the door
Open up the door

You were looking for a reason to cash in your hand
To come out from the dark and make a stand
It′s less of a name and more of a brand
That put those thoughts in your head


It's little more than fear I think
That′s got you running for the stash beneath your kitchen sink
It's there when you need it and gone in a blink
Just when you were feeling at ease

Open up the door to find that your lover′s gone
She took off running down to New Orleans and left you all alone
Hey, it's not as bad as it seems
She may have broke your heart but she left all your dreams
Open up the door
Open up the door

A man can′t hide his love away
At least not for long before it starts to fray
It's nothing we hold too dear anyway
It's just a shell to crawl into

The days of spinning wheels gone out of control
Are now just measured steps and a serious soul
Left you planning for the future where you′re not on the dole
You′ve got your own thing now


Open up the door to find that your lover's gone
She took off running down to New Orleans and left you all alone
Hey, it′s not as bad as it seems
She may have broke your heart but she left all your dreams
Open up the door
Open up the door
