Frozen
4. Love Is an Open Door Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never meant to cross the line
But you don't want me so never mind
I called your name a thousand times
But my mistake, can we rewind?

But sometimes doesn't matter how far you were
I find myself trying to catch up
But now I'm
I'm frozen
So hold in
I'm falling to stop us so far
For money towards it
In falling for the thousandth time I
I'd rather be lonely
Than end with you again so I am going
To stand deep frozen

I never heard a word you said
Cause I'll do this[?] running through my head
Was that I will never do this again
Cause you will never let it end

But now I'm
I'm frozen
So hold in
I'm falling to stop us so far
For money towards it
In falling for the thousandth time I
I'd rather be lonely
Than end with you again so I am going
To stand deep frozen

I'm frozen
So hold in
I'm falling to stop us so far
For money towards it
In falling for the thousandth time I
I'd rather be lonely




Than end with you again so I am going
To stand deep frozen

In this specific part, Anna is singing about how she feels after realizing that Hans is not the person she thought he was, and she made a mistake by falling for him. She is desperate and pleading with Hans about whether they can go back and start over. She even suggests that she would rather be alone than end up hurt again. The line "I'm falling to stop us so far" refers to Anna's realization that her love for Hans has led her down a path that only leads to heartache, and she wants to stop it as soon as possible.


But even though Anna recognizes the unhealthy dynamic between herself and Hans, she admits that she still finds herself drawn to him. The line "sometimes, it doesn't matter how far you were, I find myself trying to catch up" represents the contradictory nature of love and how it can sometimes pull us in despite our better judgement. However, ultimately, Anna decides to put a stop to the relationship and stand "deep frozen." The chorus emphasizes this decision by repeating the lines "I'm frozen, so hold in, I'd rather be lonely."


Overall, "Love Is an Open Door" is a song that speaks to the complexities of love and the risks that come with opening oneself up to someone else. Anna's experience highlights the importance of recognizing unhealthy relationships and the strength it takes to walk away.
