lyrics

If the price is high will we wave goodbye to the promised land?
You want to learn the score? Hear the slamming doors as the sun goes down.
And the shameless clown has his defenses down as he reaches out.
What is he reaching out for? What is he reaching out for?

Will you open the door wide on your love?
Will you open the door so wide you cannot close it again?

May a blessing fall on the hearts of all the people of the Earth.
Would we come to see that a life of harmony is what we're here for,
shalom- not war.
May all divisions cease at the birth of peace between all kindred souls.
But for this to be true I need to ask of you:

Will you open the door wide on your love?
Will you open the door so wide you cannot close it again?

Pull me out from the inside
Find me so I don't have to hide.
