OPEN YOUR BROKEN HEART
3rd place Love Song
Dallas Songwriters Association 2000 song contest
Words and Music: Ande Rasmussen / Donna Aylor / Jil Wilkin

His leaving left you shattered
And filled you up with doubts
You closed off your heart
When love didn’t work out
A woman like you deserves
Tenderness and passion
Let me get close to you
Give love a chance to happen

CHORUS:
OPEN YOUR BROKEN HEART
PLEASE LET MY LOVE IN
OUR LOVE NEEDS A PLACE TO START
LET’S FIND A WAY TO BEGIN
YOU‘VE BEEN HURTING FAR TOO LONG
YOU BELONG HERE IN MY ARMS
SO I’M HOPING YOU’LL OPEN
OPEN YOUR BROKEN HEART

I know just how you’re feeling
I’ve cried my share of tears
When I went through my breakup
Thought I wouldn’t heal for years
I want to ease your pain
Be the strength you need
How can I get in your heart
If I don’t have the key

REPEAT CHORUS
SO I’M HOPING YOU’LL OPEN
OPEN YOUR BROKEN HEART
