Open Your Heart
Nicholis Louw Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is there something bad I can't see?
Cos I don't see the demons
I just see the tears you cried in your dreams
Baby why'd you say that just now?
Did you know my heart would fall out?
Cos I don't seem to reach you
Baby won't you open your heart to me?
Baby won't you try and let go of this thing?
Won't you let me come save you?
Could I take you away to my dreams?
Baby won't you open your heart to me?
Somethin' in your smile says you're scared
The angel of my dreams in despair
I don't know the answers
I just know how much I care for you
It's crazy how I fall at your feet
Baby don't you know that's just me
So say you'll share the heartache
Say you'll share the hurt inside with me
Baby won't you open your heart to me?
Baby won't you try and let go of this thing?
Won't you let me come save you?
Can I take you away to my dreams?
Baby won't you open your heart to me?
Baby won't you open your heart to me?
Baby won't you try and let go of this thing?
Won't you let me come save you?
Can I take you away to my dreams?
Baby won't you open your heart to me?
