Hand over hand I crawl back to land
There is no retreat, that option's far and away
I have to be brave but I always did crave the golden sunlight
It's been about me but I'm setting that free for golden sunlight There's a door open to walk through
All I want is just beyond
What if I could let my guard down?
Into freedom on and on Somehow it came out when I can't talk about
Someone to help me as free as I wanna be
I cannot erase but you helped me face the songs and the flowers
A last perception of my self-deception and then the songs and the flowers There's a door open to walk through
All I want is just beyond
What if I could let my guard down?
Into freedom on and on What if I could just let my guard down?
What if I could live wide open? Yeah
What if I could just let my guard down
And go beyond into the great unknown? Sweetheart, I've been bothered
A golden sun lit path I've been after
Grass hills, wild flowers, sharp road trails For a daughter I want to be her father
I want to hear her laughter under meteor showers
The dogs will howl at the midnight hour There's a door open to walk through
All I want is just beyond
What if I could let my guard down?
Into freedom on and on What if I could just let my guard down?
What if I could live wide open? Yeah
What if I could just let my guard down
And go beyond into the great unknown?
