"Open Up" lyrics

"Open Up"

Everybody's got that boot face on
And I'm smiling like a fool
Don't know what they think I'm doing wrong
I guess I broke the golden rule
Don't let them come too close
Stay back
Leave a little something on the shelf
If they come too close
Keep back
But how d'you keep a good thing to yourself?

Don't play the part
Open up your lonely heart
Don't play the part
Of a cold heart
Don't play the part
Open up your lonely heart
Don't play the part
Of a cold heart

Everybody's got their lid shut down
On all the dreams that they can't face
I don't want another deal like that
Where all the gold stays in the safe
Don't wanna stay locked up, keep back
Leave a little something on the shelf
If this is where a lost cause comes back
How d'you keep a good thing to yourself?
(Let me tell you now)

Don't play the part
Open up your lonely heart
Don't play the part
Of a cold heart
Don't play the part
Open up your lonely heart
Don't play the part
Of a cold heart

All those nights we could have had
Should have let you come closer
Should have let you come close
(Don't know where we let the time go)
All that time we never had
Should have let you come closer
Let you come closer

Don't play the part
Open up your lonely heart
Don't play the part
Of a cold heart
Don't play the part
Open up your lonely heart
Don't play the part
Of a cold heart

Of a cold heart
Of a cold heart
Of a cold heart
Of a cold heart
Of a cold heart
Of a cold heart
Of a cold heart
Of a cold heart
Of a cold heart
Of a cold heart...
