Andrew Osenga - Swing Wide The Glimmering Gates lyrics

rate me

Swing Wide the Glimmering Gates

I caught myself looking in the mirror

Wishing I was someone else

I was born, with a bleeding heart

And veins of loneliness

I know it,

I’ve seen it,

I’ve held it in my arms

But love can’t seem to break me down

I’ve pleaded,

I’ve begged,

I’ve bloodied my eyes, just to feel it

To believe it will stick around (oh whoa)

Swing wide the glimmering gates

Swing wide the glimmering gates

I told myself

the habits and secrets

were just to get me through

To get me through the nights

but I got lost in a world of angles

in city and greys and lies

And I feel it,

I taste it

the longing to be free

(Oh) The joy of believing like a child

So you,

You then listening

Will you send up a prayer for me?

To help me find the light

Swing wide the glimmering gates

Leave your pride and pain

Swing wide the glimmering gates

And be innocent again

Innocent Again

Swing wide the glimmering gates

One day I believe

I will open up my eyes

Just to see

The good work that was begun

And I’ll be

The only things

I’ve ever wanted to be

And I’ll know that I belong

Swing wide the glimmering gates

Leave your pride and pain

Swing wide the glimmering gates

And be innocent again

Innocent again

Be innocent again

Swing wide the glimmering gates

Leave your pride and pain (Swing Wide)

Swing wide the glimmering gates

And be innocent again (innocent, innocent again)

Swing wide the glimmering gates

Swing wide the glimmering gates
