Opening Up lyrics

The day starts like the rest I've seen

Another carbon copy of where I've already been

Days keep coming

One out one in, they keep coming

I don't know what I wish I had

But there's no time now for thinking things like that

I've got too much to do

Too much to do

We've got too much to do

Too much to do

Opening up

Letting the day in

Pour you a cup

And say "Hello, how you been?"

Looking around

Seeing the same things

It's comforting how

Some things never change

Never change

Never change

Do they?

I wouldn't call this place a happy end

But I've been round the block and just came back again

Could be worse, so make it work, no place is perfect, hey

I'm no good in the outside world

Because I feel too much and find it usually hurts

I like the way most of the days look exactly the same

Opening up

Every day starts

Over a cup served with

"Hello, how you been?"

Welcome it in

Whatever the day brings

More of the same things

Check the clock tick tick tock don't stop serve with a smile

Hurry up fill the coffee cup and then in a while

Take a breath when you need to be reminded that with

Days like these

We can only do the best we can

Then do it all again

It's the heartbeat

The center

The lifeline

You enter

Opening up

Letting the day in

Pour you a cup

And say "Hello, how you been?"

Looking around

Seeing the same things

It's comforting how

Some things never change

Never change

Never change

They never change
