I built my fences too high Had nowhere to go No one could get inside I was alone
I dug my trenches too deep I couldn't see the sky And then a bullet hit me Then I came alive
Oo I finally found a way To open up and say I wanna let you in I've kept you on the outside Such a very long time
But now I see what I've been missin' All this time I've took second guessin' Now I need... to take a chance on me
I didn't wanna be tied down But now I see Not being tied down Ain't the same as being free Ooo you set me free, yeahhh
Oo I finally found a way To open up and say I wanna let you in I've kept you on the outside Such a very long time
But now I see what I've been missin' All this time I've took second guessin' Now I need... to take a chance on me
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
Oo I finally found a way To open up and say 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 missin' All this time I've took second guessin' Now I see what I've been missin' All this time I've took second guessin' Now I see All I need To take a chance on me.
