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
Verse Two
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
Bridge
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
And drop the shield that keep my love from getting out
I?ll swing open the door for the love I want to show
Musical Bridge
Verse Three
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
Bridge
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
