My Heart Is Open unto You

I never saw the way you loved me
Until you had me ‘gainst a wall,
then deep inside I felt that
I was finally ‘bout to fall.

I fought it hard because
I had been hurt so much before.
I didn’t want to see you, too
Walk right out the door.

I tried to keep the wall up
I’d built around my heart,
But brick by brick you’ve took it down
And now I’m falling apart.

Your courage and patients
And willingness to hold on,
Has broken into that place
I’ve kept back for so long.

It seems your healing all the scares that
Others, they have made.
The bad times seem to be forgotten
And the hurt, it seems to fade.

Our hearts are growing closer now,
At least mine is to yours,
And now I can no longer
Hold you back from this heart’s doors.

I can only hope what you discover
To be a treasure unto you
And find that love and happiness
That is forever, lasting and true.
