I opened up a window to my soul
It radiated light and made me whole
Blinded by the sun I looked away
Turned glory into just another day
The rain came in, as did the storm
Fires burned yet never kept me warm
I dream that lighted window still
Hands cold upon the windowsill
I shut that window way back when
Can I ever open it again?
Or are the shutters closed so tight
I no more shall see the light

I opened up a window to my soul
It radiated light and made me whole
Blinded by the sun I looked away
Turned glory into just another day
The rain came in, as did the storm
Fires burned yet never kept me warm
I dream that lighted window still
Hands cold upon the windowsill
I shut that window way back when
Can I ever open it again?
Or are the shutters closed so tight
I no more shall see the light
