Lyrics

Woke up this morning with the sun in my eyes
It happens every day but what a pleasant surprise
Some strange impressions of a dream in my head
So I hauled my guitar to the riverbed

Started singing a lullaby
To the luminescence in your eyes
See me hiding behind a tree?
So delighted that you could join me.

Despite all appearances I want to let you in
Please give me just a moment to let me catch the wind
I'm feeling overwhelmed and overexposed
My door's unlocked, I heard you knock, so open up whatever's closed.

The sun is roasting me but I can't complain
Though like everyone else I've known the meaning of pain
I get so lonely that when friends come around
I lock all the doors and pull the curtains down.

So much to say to you it's clogging my mind
And my tongue's tied up like a telephone line
So if I run away and act like a stranger
As the days unfold I'll unravel and change, yeah.

Despite all appearances I want to let you in
Please give me just a moment to let me catch the wind
I'm feeling overwhelmed and overexposed
My door's unlocked, I heard you knock, so open up whatever's closed.

Despite all appearances It's no matter of life or death
Please give me just a moment to let me catch my breath
Sometimes I must be reminded of the things that everybody knows.
My door's unlocked, I heard you knock, so open up whatever
My door's unlocked, I heard you knock, so open up whatever
I heard you knock, My door's unlocked, so open up whatever's closed.
