The Door Is Wide Open

I woke this morning
to the sound of breaking glass
And there in the kitchen
you stood crying in the dish-drain rack
You said you felt just like the walls were closing in
And you had to leave me
It was sink or swim

chorus:
The door is wide open
I won’t try to hold you back
I ‘d do most anything for your love
but I won’t do that
I’m not the kind of man to beg you to stay
If you want to go the door is wide open

I don’t know how you got the idea
that you had to stay here
I don’t know how I put that much
pressure on your mind
In time I hope to find the answers
to these burning questions
For now let me make it plain as rain

chorus:

bridge:
You thought that love was romance
like living in a dream
But now you know it isn’t
Sometimes the test of love is staying
when you want to pack up and leave

I like to think I’ve been responsive
to your every need
but that’s just pycho-babble talk
from some magazine
The bigger picture is the one
that you don’t want to see:
“Love isn’t  always easy”

chorus:
