Open the Door

 "Open The Door"

Judy Collins

 

Sometimes I remember the old days

When the world was filled with sorrow

You might have thought I was living but I was all alone

In my heart the rain was falling

The wind blew, the night was calling

Come back, come back, I'm all you've ever known

 

Open the door and come on in

I'm so glad to see you, my friend

You're like a rainbow, coming around the bend

And when I see you happy

Well, it sets my heart free

I'd like to be as good a friend to you, as you are to me

 

There were friends who could always see me

Through the haze their smiles would reach me

Saying okay, saying goodbye, saying hello

Soon I knew just what I was after

Was life and love, tears and laughter

 

Hello, my good friend

Hello, my darling

What do you know

 

Open the door and come on in

I'm so glad to see you, my friend

You're like a rainbow, coming around the bend

And when I see you happy

Well, it sets my heart free

I'd like to be as good a friend to you, as you are to me

 

I used to think it was only me feeling alone

Not feeling free to be alive to be a friend

Now I know we all have stormy weather

The sun shines through when we're together

I'll be your friend, right through to the end

 

Open the door and come on in

I'm so glad to see you, my friend

You're like a rainbow, coming around the bend

And when I see you happy

Well, it sets my heart free

I'd like to be as good a friend to you, as you are to me

 

Open the door and come on in

I'm so glad to see you, my friends

You're all like rainbows, coming around the bend

And when I see you happy

Well, it sets my heart free

I'd like to be as good a friend to you, as you are to me
