Neil Diamond - Open Wide These Prison Doors lyrics

Tied by love to you

but I was tied too strong

Still I’m afraid of knowing

what leaving means

I know I lived for you

and all I tried to do

You were the keeper of my dreams

Open wide these prison doors

Take these chains from around my heart

Make believe that I’m no more

And don’t mind when I depart

Need to find another place

Where love is not just tossed away

If you really care for me

Open wide these prison doors

And set me free

You were always caring, always warm and kind

But that was long ago, when love was blind

And I don’t want to hurt you, the way that I’ve been hurt

But if I stay I’ll lose my mind

Open wide these prison doors

Take these chains from around my heart

Make believe that I’m no more

And don’t mind when I depart

Need to find another place

Where love is not just tossed away

If you really care for me

Open wide these prison doors

And set me free

Time is always moving

While we’re here standing still

I love you even though I’m leaving

And maybe I always will

But, open wide these prison doors

Take these chains from around my heart

Make believe that I’m no more

And don’t mind when I depart

Need to find another place

Where love is not just tossed away

And if you really care for me

Open wide these prison doors

And set me free

If you really care for me

Open wide these prison doors

And set me free

Set me free, yeah

Come on and set me free

Set me free
