NO DOUBT

- Open The Gate Lyrics

I see you from a distance
From beyond the fence you've made
Hiding all your feelings
Behind your barricade

Oh have you been invaded
Is this the reason why you hide
I know just how you're feeling
I know let me inside

Open the gate up
Open the gate up, hurry
Open the gate up, hurry

I want to get near you
But you just won't let me in
'Cause you're so scared of losing
Everything you've got within

Come on now you can trust me
Come on open the door
'Cause I know just how you're feeling
I know, I've been there before

Open the gate up
Open the gate up, hurry
Open the gate up, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry

And do it right now, do it right now
Do it right now, do it right now
Hurry

Do it right now, do it right now
Do it right now, do it right now

And do it right now, do it right now
Do it right now, do it right now
Hurry

Open the gate up
Open the gate up, hurry
Open the gate up, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry

Open the gate up, well open the gate up
Or I'm gonna knock the damn door down
Open the gate up, well open the gate up
Or I'm gonna knock the damn door down

Open the gate up, well open the gate up
Or I'm gonna knock the damn door down
Open the gate up, well open the gate up
Or I'm gonna knock the damn door down, down
