Andrew Osenga - Swing Wide The Glimmering Gates текст песни

Swing Wide the Glimmering Gates

I caught myself looking in the mirror
Wishing I was someone else
I was born, with a bleeding heart
And veins of loneliness

I know it,
I've seen it,
I've held it in my arms
But love can't seem to break me down

I've pleaded,
I've begged,
I've bloodied my eyes, just to feel it
To believe it will stick around (oh whoa)

Swing wide the glimmering gates
Swing wide the glimmering gates

I told myself
the habits and secrets
were just to get me through
To get me through the nights

but I got lost in a world of angles
in city and greys and lies

And I feel it,
I taste it
the longing to be free
(Oh) The joy of believing like a child

So you,
You then listening
Will you send up a prayer for me?
To help me find the light


Swing wide the glimmering gates
Leave your pride and pain
Swing wide the glimmering gates
And be innocent again
Innocent Again

Swing wide the glimmering gates

One day I believe
I will open up my eyes
Just to see
The good work that was begun

And I'll be
The only things
I've ever wanted to be
And I'll know that I belong

Swing wide the glimmering gates
Leave your pride and pain
Swing wide the glimmering gates
And be innocent again
Innocent again
Be innocent again
Swing wide the glimmering gates
Leave your pride and pain (Swing Wide)
Swing wide the glimmering gates
And be innocent again (innocent, innocent again)
Swing wide the glimmering gates

Swing wide the glimmering gates
