  • I've been through a year of madness
    Replaced my hope with sadness
    Found waking up the hardest
    And every day, it felt the longest
    All blessings were unwanted
    Constantly haunted

    Then you opened up
    Opened up my windows
    Yeah, you opened up
    Opened up my windows
    Like fire in the sky
    You know what it's like
    Was so glad to feel the sunlight in my eyes

    I've been through a year of hurting (Badly)
    Bad guesses and wrong turnings (Sadly)
    The memory still burning (Inside)
    And the lights are all at red
    Should I leave or stay in bed?
    Didn't practice what I preached
    So I just shouted, "Help me, help me"

    Then you opened up
    Opened up my windows
    Yeah, you opened up
    Opened up my windows
    Like fire in the sky
    You know what it's like
    Was so glad to feel the sunlight in my eyes

    Ready now to start this climb
    See the beacon way up high
    If I fall or lose my way
    Please come and get me, get me
    Ooh-ooh
    Ah-ah

    You opened up
    Opened up my windows
    Yeah, you opened up
    Opened up my windows
    Then you opened up
    Opened up my windows
    Yeah, you opened up
    Opened up my windows
    Like fire in the sky
    You know what it's like
    Was so glad to feel the sunlight in my eyes

    You opened up
    Opened up my windows
    Yeah, you opened up
    Opened up my windows Writer/s: Gary Barlow, Howard Paul Donald, Mark Anthony Owen
