Love built this house long ago
Gave it a beauty all it's own
And it was warm and free and welcoming
But I learned to hide amid the rooms
Till slowly it became the tomb
Where I have shut away the light of day
Now I'm longing to be known
Will you come and move this stone
Let the door swing wide and the walls come down
Don't let me hide where I'll never be found
I have been so blind but I want to see
Call the darkness out let the sun come in
Breath life into these rooms again
And I'll let the door swing wide
Each storm that came I lost heart
Traded the welcome mat for iron bars
Pretended I was not falling apart
Who did I think I would fool
How could I ever hide from you
For this is your home too and so you know
That what's out there is my worst fear
But I'm tired of the view from here
Let the door swing wide and the walls come down
Don't let me hide where I'll never be found
I have been so blind but I want to see
Call the darkness out let the sun come in
Breath life into these rooms again
And I'll let the door swing wide
And it may take a mighty blow
To free me from what binds me so
I don't mind 'cause it's time
I just wanna see the light
Call the darkness out let the sun come in
Breath life into these rooms again
And I'll let the door swing wide
Oh I'll let the door swing wide
Oh I'll let the door swing wide
