Down Monday — Open Up to Me lyrics

Lyrics

And I thought that we were done
I was so scared to death
That I’d never get another chance
To share the same breath
With the girl in Nebraska
That turned me around
The day that I met you
Was the day that I found
A reason to live
A reason to breathe
You made me forget
Every insecurity
That I’d built up inside
Cause I just couldn’t take it I thought that I could
But I was sadly mistaken
Now it’s your choice
You know that I’m crossing my fingers
That you’ll give me a chance
Even though the fear lingers
Cause he left you a scar
That was deep enough to see
And I hate that because of him
You’re doing this to me So baby drop off the act
And drop down your guard
I made you the promise
That I won’t break your heart
And when the sun starts to rise
And the spark starts between us You can look in my eyes
And you’ll know that I mean it Oh… oh…
I swear that I’ll mean it…
Oh… oh…
I swear that I’ll mean it
I’m not leaving til you tell me That we’re meant to be Because the feeling’s got me restless
It’s been weeks since I could sleep
I’ve been staring at the ceiling
And counting down the days
Until the moment that you finally
Open up to me
I’ve been taking shit for granted
Because it’s hard to care
About the other things in life
When I just wish that you were there
So baby stop the masquerade
I’ll give you time to breathe
The only thing I ask for in return is that you
Open up to me…
Is that you open up to me…
Is that you open up to me…
Is that you open up to me…
Is that you open up to me…
And I’d never missed you more
Than on the day I thought I lost you
It fucked me up so badly
Cause I thought for sure I’d caught you
And my sentences were running like
They had no place to go They haven’t been the same since,
God dammit, I don’t know
But what I know is that you feel it Cause I can feel it to It’s like the sky is falling down
And there is nothing you can do Or like your trapped inside a box
And no one’s got the key
I’ve come to make the rescue
If you would only let me…
Oh… oh…
If you would only let me…
Oh… oh…
If you would only let me…
I’m not leaving til you tell me That we’re meant to be Because the feeling’s got me restless
It’s been weeks since I could sleep
I’ve been staring at the ceiling
And counting down the days
Until the moment that you finally
Open up to me
I’ve been taking shit for granted
Because it’s hard to care
About the other things in life
When I just wish that you were there
So baby stop the masquerade
I’ll give you time to breathe
The only thing I ask for in return is that you
Open up to me…
Me and you are the only thing I see…
Me and you are the only thing I see…
I’m not leaving til you tell me That we’re meant to be Because the feeling’s got me restless
It’s been weeks since I could sleep
I’ve been staring at the ceiling
And counting down the days
Until the moment that you finally
Open up to me
I’ve been taking shit for granted
Because it’s hard to care
About the other things in life
When I just want you there
So baby stop the masquerade
I’ll give you time to breathe
The only thing I ask for in return is that you
Open up to me…
