You Opened up Your Heart

By Bruce Clifford

There’s a part of the heart that never dies
There’s a will and way to live and fly
Each shadow passes through me as if I were the morning sun
Then I take a second glance at a new day that’s just begun

You opened up your heart
You opened up my soul
You followed my own will
You never let me go

There’s a part of the heart that burns to forever
There’s a thought and a dream each life should treasure
Every raindrop that falls through the clouds and through the air
Then I take another look and know you are always there

You opened up your heart
You opened up my soul
You came into my life
You never let me go

You opened up my heart
You always came around
You accepted the worst in me
You never let me down

There’s a part of the heart that never dies
