There was a time I had to handle on myself
|
I forgot just how to speak and say my name
|
And I’m here alone in this room that’s never cold
|
And it hurts me still
|
There was a time I had this fear before I sang
|
No one told me I should do it for myself
|
So I took the mic and I sang with all my heart
|
And I hoped that they remembered
|
Oh, not this time, I’m not gonna keep it quiet
|
I will open up the gates and I hope that it will heal me, oh
|
My Lord, please don’t let me be alone
|
Yeah, I’m leaving town tomorrow and I hope that it will heal me
|
Yeah, I’m leaving town tomorrow and I hope that it will heal me
|
Over time my heart has told me not to waste
|
Any minute more controlling myself
|
So I picked up the one with the saddest eyes of all
|
And I tried to get her off the shelf
|
Oh, not this time, I’m not gonna keep it quiet
|
I will open up the gates and I hope that it will heal me, oh
|
My Lord, please don’t let me be alone
|
Yeah, I’m leaving town tomorrow and I hope that it will heal me
|
Yeah, I’m leaving town tomorrow and I hope that it will heal me
|
Oh, not this time, I’m not gonna keep it quiet
|
I will open up the gates and I hope that it will heal me, oh
|
My Lord, please don’t let me be alone
|
Yeah, I’m leaving town tomorrow and I hope that it will heal me
|
Oh, yeah, I’m leaving town tomorrow and I hope that it will heal me |
