I built my fences too high
Had nowhere to go
No one could get inside if I was alone
I dug my trenches too deep
I couldn't see the sky
And then a bullet hit me
And I came alive
Ooh, I finally found a way (I finally found a way)
To open up and see
I wanna let you in
I've kept you on the outside such a very long time
And now I see what I've been missing
All this time I took second guessing
Now I need to take a chance on me
I didn't wanna be tied down
But now I see
Not bein' tied down ain't the same as bein' free
Oh, you set me free, yeah
Ooh, I finally found a way (I finally found a way)
To open up and see
I wanna let you in
I've kept you on the outside such a very long time
Oh, and now I see what I've been missing
All this time I took second guessing
Now I need to take a chance on me, yeah
No man is an island
No point in acting tough
We all need someone to make us smile
To make us cry
To make us...
Love
I wanna let you in
I've kept you on the outside such a very long time
Ooh, I finally found a way (I finally found a way)
To open up and see
I wanna let you in
I've kept you on the outside such a very long, long time
And now I see what I've been missing
All this time I took second guessing
Now I see what I've been missing
All this time I took second guessing
Now I see
Oh, I need to take a chance on me
