I can't find my way out of this place I'm crawling on the floor If the party's over, why won't you tell me? I don't see you dancing any more [Chorus] Well when all the doors are open wide I'll be yours and maybe you'll be mine So close your eyes; kiss the sky The door is open won't ya come inside Well can you hear the wind? It's telling lies It happens all the time Can you see the faces, seraphim eyes They make me want to cry [Chorus] Come inside, come inside Well, I could dive in deep or float on by It doesn't matter to me, no ''cause one way or another I'm gonna get myself right out of this dream When all the doors are open wide I'll be yours and maybe you'll be mine So cover your eyes; kiss the sky The door is open, so come inside
