Open Wide These Prison Doors

Tied by love to you

But I was tied too strong

Still, I'm afraid of knowin'

What leavin' means

I know I lived for you

In all I tried to do

You were the keeper of my dreams



Open wide these prison doors

Take these chains

From 'round my heart

Make believe that I'm no more

Pay no mind when I depart

Need to find another place

Where love is not just tossed away

If you really care for me,

Open wide these prison doors

And set me free



You were always caring

Always warm and kind

But that was long ago

When love was blind

And I don't want to hurt you

The way that I've been hurt

But if I stay, I'll lose my mind



Open wide these prison doors

Take these chains

From 'round my heart

Make believe that I'm no more

Pay no mind when I depart

Need to find another place

Where love is not just tossed away

And if you really care for me,

Open wide these prison doors

And set me free



Time is always moving

While we're here standing still

I'll love you even though I'm leaving

And maybe I always will



Open wide these prison doors

Take these chains

From 'round my heart

Make believe that I'm no more

Pay no mind when I depart

Need to find another place

Where love is not just tossed away

And if you really care for me,

Open wide these prison doors

And set me free



If you really care for me,

Open wide these prison doors

And set me free

Set me free

Yeah

C'mon set me free

Set me free
