Lyrics

[Verse 1] Woman, can you tell me What it is to love someone? Without the getting-older I'd be wiser than I was Every time I get close to you I end up right back at the start So, woman, can you tell me What it is to love and be loved by someone? [Verse 2] Woman, can you hear me? 'Cause you know the mess I've made This pain you got me goin' through Is like the ghost of what could have been And I look out for a sign Something to tell me I'm getting through to you But you close your eyes And, woman, I can't open them for you [Pre-Chorus] So it's time I went away It's time I gave you space It's time I gave myself the chance To find some piece of mind some day [Chorus] I'll keep the door open for ya If you ever find a way to make it back to me some day I'll keep the door open for ya 'Cause there's fire that burns inside, and a love I cannot hide I'll keep the door open for ya [Verse 3] Woman, can I ask you Do you regret the things you said? I could never leave you, nor forsake you And there's no bitterness from my end But can you acknowledge one thing before I go There's something special in what we had I know it's hard to see it now, woman But it'll work out in the end [Pre-Chorus] So it's time I went away It's time I gave you space It's time I gave myself the chance To find some piece of mind some day [Chorus] I'll keep the door open for ya If you ever find a way to make it back to me some day I'll keep the door open for ya 'Cause there's fire that burns inside, and a love I cannot hide I'll keep the door open for ya If you ever find a way to make it back to me some day I'll keep the door open for ya
