Cowboy Junkies
I’m So Open
Just outside there waiting
Just outside the circle
Waiting for that finger to point your way
Just keep running
Just keep running
New ones quickly burning
Old ones die away
Fires lit to say goodbye or hello
Which way you looking?
Which way you looking?
Count all wounds that brought you here
Lay your blessings end to end
Rid yourself of all regrets
Because here is where it all begins
A bumbler's game, a cheater's wheel
Where the winner pays the highest cost
You've laid your marker, now watch the ball
Hold your breath, it's about to fall
Just outside there waiting
Just outside the circle
Waiting there is someone, I don't know who
I'm so open
I'm so open
I don't sleep most nights
Just lie awake and count my blessings
I'll take this endless life
Of perfect pointless mornings
I'll hold you till the morning comes
'Cause it's all that I can do
I'm so open
I'm so open
I don't like these last goodbyes
I don't like goodbyes
