Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hand over hand, I crawled back to land There is no retreat, that option's far and away I have to be brave, but I always did crave The golden sunlight It's been about me, but I'm setting that free For golden sunlight [Chorus] There's a door open to walk through All I want is, just beyond What if I could let my guard down Into freedom, on and on [Verse 2] Somehow it came out, what I can't talk about Someone to help me, as free as I wanna be I cannot erase, but you helped me face The songs and the flowers At last, perception of my self-deception And then the songs and the flowers, oh-oh [Chorus] There's a door open to walk through All I want is, just beyond What if I could let my guard down Into freedom, on and on [Post-Chorus] What if I could just let my guard down What if I could live wide open, yeah What if I could just let my guard down And go beyond into the great unknown [Bridge] Sweetheart, I've been bothered A golden sunlit path I've been after Grass hills, wildflowers Chaparral trails for our daughter I want to be her father I want to hear her laughter Under meteor showers Our dogs will howl at the midnight hour [Chorus] There's a door open to walk through All I want is, just beyond What if I could let my guard down Into freedom, on and on [Outro] What if I could just let my guard down What if I could live wide open What if I could just let my guard down And go beyond into the great unknown
