Bruce Cockburn Open Lyrics

Open Lyrics

I never lived with balance

I always wake up nervous

Light comes at
me sideways

I hold my breath forever 



I never lived with
balance

Though Ive always liked the notion

I feel an endless
hunger

For energy and motion

Open

Open

Open 



I never lived with balance

I want to feel you near me

Theres an
aching in my hipbone

Want to let my heart drop open

Its daylight in
the city

Theres thumping in the stairwell

Kundalini sunrise

A
clamouring of church bells

Open

Open

Open 



You
like to let me worry

But I dont take you for granted

Come over here
and kiss me 

Im savouring your picture

The street is filled with
noises

Life going up and down

Light comes at you sideways

Enfolds you like a gown

Open

Open

Open
