We all could be so beautiful
This world can be so hard
Some memories are so difficult
Now you’re lost here in the dark

How can you hold back the anger
How can you hold back these tears
Your strength has been touched by thunder
Watch sadness just wash away

Open the floodgates to your heart
Tears they are falling down like stars
You know it’s too late now
You’re coming apart
So open the floodgates
Open the floodgates to your heart

You’re holding on to fate and faith
You’re hiding all the scars
Scared ’cause nobody’s safe
Dream of life on Mars

How can you hold back the anger
How can you hold back these tears
Your strength has been touched by thunder
Watch sadness just wash away

Open the floodgates to your heart
Tears they are falling down like stars
You know it’s too late now
You’re coming apart
So open the floodgates
Open the floodgates to your heart

Sometimes I feel like like your head
Like your head’s in the clouds
Feel the pain just like rain as it’s tumbling down
Look around, look around
You’re alone in this crowd
So come on and just let it out

Open the floodgates to your heart
Open the floodgates
Open the floodgates

Open up, open up now
Open up, open up now
Open up
Open up

Open the floodgates to your heart
Tears they are falling down like stars
You know it’s too late now
You’re coming apart
So open the floodgates
Open the floodgates to your heart
