(got to keep) open
crosby, stills & nash
it's high time you realize that i must live my life as it surrounds me
i can give you all the room you need to be yourself as i am in the same key
we can live our lives together yes
and still remain ourselves if we believe
got to keep an open heart got to keep an open mind
got to keep workin' hard or you get left behind
got to let nothin' get in the way of livin'
i've given you my heart i give my soul i give you everything i have
and just as there's a special part of you that's yours alone to keep i'm glad
there is so much we can do together everything you need if we believe
got to keep an open heart
got to keep workin' hard or you get left behind
got to let nothin' get in the way of livin'
i was looking for love i was losing my mind
i was searching for someone to care
i was fighting my feelings to turn and to run
and i looked in your heart and i saw there was somebody there
so i'm sitting on the river in your city and i'm writing out these words
and i hope that you will listen to my song 'cos it is mine and now it's yours
i'm the master of my fate and the captain of my soul
got to keep an open heart
got to keep workin' hard or you get left behind
got to let nothin' get in the way of livin'
