I Open the Door

I open the door, where I am free
Fresh air moves me, as if I have wings
I float with dreams, nature carries me

To all the places where my heart sings
I stare at all the movement around
Fresh air moves me, as if I have wings

I listen to the music of sound
Peace is everwhere, to surround
I stare at all the movement around

Grateful for anything that I've found
This chance to experience it all
Peace is everywhere to surround

My creation provides me no wall
So, I fly in my mind through it all
This chance to experience it all

Because, time moves on, with all to see
I open the door where I am free
Looking at all the trees that stand tall
I float with dreams, nature carries me
