| 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 |
