Open Book

I feel just like an open book

Exposing myself in this neighborhood

Talking to people as if I knew them well

Thinking that everyone

Has gone through different kinds of Hell

Lately, I've found myself in doubt

Asking myself what it's all about

What am I doing here, what's this leading to?

What's the point of it all without you?

Well, I've got promises to keep

Like a cat, I know I'll land upon my feet

Each time I fall

Every now and then in dreams

By the river 'neath our tree

Leaves in yellow, red and brown

I hear you whisper in my ear

Your love belongs to everyone

I feel just like an open book

A couple of words was all it took

In front of a bright white canvas

Staring vacantly now free against my will

A drifting vessel in the storm

Pushed around from shore to shore

I know there's so much left to see

I know I have so much left to give

But the memories remain

Yet the scars don't feel the same

Filling pages one by one

In the warmth of other suns
