The Open Door

Beloved child, my heart holds one thing true.

I will always love you.

What’s done is done. Let us begin something new.

I will always love you!

I will always love you!

 

It’s been many, many years since I held you in my arms,

Watched you head to school, learn to sing your songs.

What a blessed time that was!

What a wondrous time that was!

 

I’ll never understand what came between our lives,

Broke apart our paths, and left us far and wide.

Even my tears have cried!

Even my tears have cried.

 

But I want you to know, nothing’s changed in my view.

I will always love you!

No matter what’s said or done, this will ever ring true.

I will always love you.

 

You asked me to stay away. I’ve done what I can do.

I still struggle with the pain, as I'm sure you must, too.

But I still long to be with you!

Memories will never, ever do.

 

Whenever you’re ready, I’m not hard to find.

My number’s never changed. The cloud’s easy to mine.

Isn’t it time to heal old wounds?

Isn’t it time?

 

Beloved child, my heart holds one thing true.

I will always love you.

What’s done is done. Let us begin something new.

I will always love you!

I will always love you!
