Song for judith (open the door)

Sometimes I remember the old days

When the world was filled with sorrow

You might have thought I was livin'

But I was all alone

In my heart the rain was fallin

The wind blew and

The night was callin

Come back, come back, I'm all you've ever known

Open the door and come on in

I'm so glad to see you my friend

You're like a rainbow comin around the bend

And when I see you smilin

Well, it sets my heart free

I'd like to be as good a friend to you

As you are to me

There were friends who could always see me

Through the haze their smiles would reach me

Saying okay, saying good-bye, saying hello

Soon I knew just what I was after

Was life and love, tears and laughter

Hello, my good friend, hello my darlin

What do you know

Open the door and come on in

I'm so glad to see you my friend

You're like a rainbow comin around the bend

And when I see you smilin

Well, it sets my heart free

I'd like to be as good a friend to you

as you are to me

I used to think it was only me feeling alone

Not feeling free to be alive to be a friend

Now I know we all have stormy weather

The sun shines through when we're together

I'll be your friend right through to the end

Open the door and come on in

I'm so glad to see you my friend

You're like a rainbow comin around the bend

And when I see you smilin

Well, it sets my heart free

I'd like to be as good a friend to you

as you are to me
