Verse One
Its taken time to sort things out
But, now it's clear what my life is about
What's been missing for me is the love I want to show
I vow to give all that I can
To make a difference and take a stand
Against old habits that hide the love I want to show
Lift
I swear from this moment to love a different way
Because if I don't, how will I rise above the mistakes I have made?
Chorus
I have learned to open my heart
Tear down the walls that keep my love from getting out
I'll swing open the door for the love I want to show
Musical Bridge
Verse Two
The world outside loves to pretend
That I'll be hurt if I change my direction
But I'll put a fight for the love I want to show
Lift
How strong can my love be if I'm too afraid?
To make the changes I need to and keep the new promises I've made
Chorus
I have learned to love myself
So I'll be ready to love somebody else
I'll swing open the door for the love I want to show
I'll swing open the door for the love I want to show
