Lyrics
Pull the blinds
Open the window
And let the sunlight come through
Feel the fresh air
Blow back your hair
And let the new day enter you
Tear down the walls
No matter how tall
Let nothing stand in your way
The critics and clowns
Will all gather round
And marvel at the brightness of
The day
Pull up a chair and settle in
I'm no confessor and I can't forgive your sin
But I will listen like a bartender
And offer you a sigh
Lay your fears upon my ears
I'll never ask you why
I don't have to say a word
But I can give you my advice if that's what you prefer
Though I've never studied medicine
Or problems of the mind
So there's no telling
What realities we'll find
Let your conversation flow
Let your storm of sorrow pour
I will be gentle like the autumn
Open like a door
We've known each other for too long
So don't hold back when I can see that something's wrong
Don't fool yourself to thinking
It's a thing you can disguise
Storing up your problems
In your shoulders and your eyes
Like a soldier on his guard you stand
Is that what you really think it takes to be a man?
When you reach the breaking point
You'll snap like rotten wood
Settle in and let it out
You know it feels so good
Let your conversation flow
Let your storm of sorrow pour
I will be gentle like the autumn
Open like a door
Ahhh
Pull up a chair and settle in
Go ahead and make yourself as comfortable as sin
And I'll listen like a bartender
And offer you a sigh
Grab a beer, I'll lend an ear
And never ask you why
Let your conversation flow
Let your storm of sorrow pour
I will be gentle like the autumn
Open like a door
Open like a door
Open like a door
Open like a door
