If I open up this window
And let the cool night air creep in
Will you lay down here beside me
And warm my soul within
If I open up my heart to you
And learn to live again
Will you be

Will you be the one to love me
And break my defenses down
Will you be the one to heal me
And turn my faith in life around
Will you be the one to show me
True passion, without a sound
Will you be

Life can be a winding road
Paved of love's fool's gold
Failed romantic dreams
That leave our hearts cold,
And make it hard to see
More possibilities
Cause our eyes are closed
When they shouldn't be

But tonight we find ourselves
Alone, just you and me
And we can take this chance
This opportunity
To make love
More than just a memory

So be the one to love me
Break my defenses down
Be the one to heal me
Turn my faith in life around
Be the one to show me
True passion, without a sound

If you're ready
To risk love's brutality
I think I'm ready
But will you be
