Your hinges creak they’re barely there

The wood is cracked it needs repair

I see the lock it’s rusted tight

But I’ll work on it all through the night

I’m fixing the broken door to your heart

Piece by piece I’ll take it apart

Sanding the edges till they’re smooth

Building a way to get back to you

The paint is chipped it’s worn with time

A thousand knocks left scars behind

I’ll grab my tools I’ll take the care

To mend the pain that lingers there

I’m fixing the broken door to your heart

Piece by piece I’ll take it apart

Sanding the edges till they’re smooth

Building a way to get back to you

Each screw I tighten is a step closer

Each nail I drive makes the past feel over

I’m not a carpenter but I’ll try

To make your heart a place where love can fly

The frame’s unstable but I’ll hold on

With every effort I’ll make it strong

You’ll see the door stand tall and free

An open path for you and me
