---LYRICS---

We were so close to just right
A friendship real and true
From the start something was off
I ignored it because I liked you
Always thought it would get better
But it just kept on the same way
The weeks and months, they ticked by
Great friends who might be more someday

There’s a door deep in your heart
You’re not even sure where it is
But I know it is locked up tight
And no one can get in

One day I found I was unhappy
Finally had to bring it up
Had a hope that you could face it then
Take a leap for our love
You just smiled and you told me
You didn’t know what I was talkin’ about
Right then my heart it broke open
And years of pain spilled out

There’s a door deep in your heart
You’re not even sure where it is
But I know it is locked up tight
And no one can get in

There’s days I miss you so much
(I know you do)
I can’t help but cry
(I hate to see you cry)
The sadness it just comes
(I miss you too)
Every time I wonder why
(Baby, I’m sorry)
Why, why, why
(I don’t know why)

Open that door deep in your heart
Look until you find where it is
Yeah open up that door
So someone can get in

God damn, that door deep in your heart
You didn’t even know it was there
I couldn’t get past that door
‘Cause you were so scared
