Lyrics

When one door closes
Everyone supposes
You'll be feeling blue,
When one door closes
Often ain't a bed of roses
So I'm gonna tell you what you've got to do.

When one door closes
What everyone knows is
You're gonna wonder why?
When one door closes
That's the question it poses
So I'm gonna tell you what you've got to try.

Hold your head up high
Reach for the sky
Find a new door that you can try,
Don't turn back the clock,
The past has been locked,
Just find another door and walk on through.

When one door closes
The guy who grows is
The one who has no fear,
When one door closes
Many choices it exposes
So I'm gonna tell you how to make it clear.

Hold your head up high
Reach for the sky
Find a new door that you can try,
Don't turn back the clock,
The past has been locked,
Just find another door and walk on through.


Your hopes and dreams shouldn't be suppressed
It's just that you're being put to the test
Walk away from any troubles that you've been through
And you're at the start of something new.

When one door closes
Everyone supposes
You'll be feeling blue,
When one door closes
Often ain't a bed of roses
So I'm gonna tell you what you've got to do.

Hold your head up high
Reach for the sky
Find a new door that you can try,
Don't turn back the clock,
The past has been locked,
Just find another door and walk on through.

Hold your head up high
Reach for the sky
Find a new door that you can try,
Don't turn back the clock,
The past has been locked,
Just find another door and walk on through.

Find another door and walk on through
Yeah, find another door and walk on through.
