I had the whole wide world I had it all planned out But I don't know that girl Anymore, anymore I had a happy home The kind you dream about But darkness came and tore out the curtains And ripped out the floor Time to close that door And let this one open, open I was down, down, low I was fallin' fast With nowhere to go Anymore, anymore I was holdin' on I was living in the past But oh, that got me feelin' rotten to my core Time to close that door And let this one open, open wide And try and find the love that's still inside The piece of me I thought had surely died 'Till I tried Moving towards the future with the past in my heart Then I can start to finally close that door There's so much life in store Beyond that open, open door!
