Open Up

REO Speedwagon

Say you know you've got to run

You know you've got to hide

You don't know who to follow

Or who is on your side

You don't know where you're goin'

You won't talk of where you've been

And I may see you tomorrow

Or nevermore again.



And I've seen you in the cities

I've seen you on the road

And your face is all a-twisted

'cause your brain is a heavy load

And then you turn and ask me

Say how will I ever know

And you talk of all your searchin'

But I think it's all for show



Open up my friend

Love someone if you can

Go on, let her in

Open up again.



And I hear your mournful songs

I hear your painful crys

And I've seen the light of hunger

Linger deep within your eyes

And you talk about your sinkin'

And what a hole you're in

You expect for me to love you

When you hate yourself my friend.



And you've got yourself a potion

Oh to keep you from your sleep

In that dark and lonely hour

Well I've heard you laugh and weep

But you'll always be a-runnin'

Runnin' till you find your doom

'Cause you never face your lonely soul

You never face the gloom.



Open up my friend

Love someone if you can

Go on, let her in

Open up again.
