(Got To Keep) Open lyrics - Crosby, Stills & Nash

[Intro. (Synth)]

Well, it's high time you realize that I must live my life as it surrounds me
I can give you all the room you need to be yourself as I am in the same key
We can live our lives together yes, and still remain ourselves if we believe
And I believe oh, oh, darlin'

Got to keep an open heart got to keep an open mind
Got to keep workin' hard or you get left behind
Got to keep lovin', got to keep givin'
Got to let nothin' get in the way of livin'
Gotta keep open

I've given you my heart I give my soul I give you everything I have
Yes, and just as there's a special part of you that's yours alone to keep I'm glad
There is so much we can do together everything you need if we believe
And I believe, oh, oh darlin'

Got to keep an open heart, got to keep an open mind
Got to keep workin' hard or you get left behind
Got to keep lovin', got to keep givin'
Got to let nothin' get in the way of livin'
Gotta keep open

I was looking for love I was losing my mind
I was searching for someone to care
I was fighting my feelings to turn and to run
And I looked in your heart and I saw there was somebody there

So I'm sitting on the river in your city and I'm writing out these words
And I hope that you will listen to my song 'cos it is mine and now it's yours
I'm the master of my fate and the captain of my soul
And I believe yes, I believe oh, oh, darlin'

Got to keep an open heart, got to keep an open mind
Got to keep workin' hard or you get left behind
Got to keep lovin', got to keep givin'
Got to let nothin' get in the way of livin'
Gotta keep open

[Instrumental (Percussion and Accordion)]

Gotta keep open, open, open ...
