[00:00.00]Open Road
[00:50.00]Written by Gary Barlow
[00:22.69]My life, is extraordinairy bare,
[00:28.29]I fought the fear and chased the pain.
[00:33.47]My life, doesn't need to be explained,
[00:38.90]I chose to walk this life as one.
[00:43.89]Sometimes, as I live upon my island,
[00:49.53]Cut off from emotion and its pain.
[00:54.76]That's when, I am tempted by the waters,
[01:00.16]Waters that can take me far away.
[01:04.44]Chorus: So I just keep on walking down this open road,
[01:10.83]Hoping someone, somewhere needs me.
[01:15.14]So I just keep on walking down this open road,
[01:21.57]Talking to the man who knows me,
[01:26.38]Yes he knows me, the man is me.
[01:32.29]My life, was once full of people's faces,
[01:37.85]Bought to me by love, which isn't strange.
[01:42.92]My life, had the goodness of blue waters,
[01:48.34]A day's a day for all I used to say.
[01:53.64]Sometimes, I can sit and cry my heart out,
[01:59.15]Drowning in my autocratic ways.
[02:04.53]That's when, I am tempted by the waters,
[02:09.87]Waters that can take me far away.
[02:14.14]Chorus: So I just keep on walking down this open road,
[02:20.64]Hoping someone, somewhere needs me.
[02:24.91]So I just keep on walking down this open road,
[02:31.22]Talking to the man who knows me,
[02:36.10]Yes he knows me, the man is me.
[03:25.05]My life, is now full of people's faces,
[03:30.30]Within the light of change I pulled away.
[03:35.63]My life, shows that no man is an island,
[03:40.71]I've exchanhed the piece of life, I couldn't wait.
[03:45.43]Now you won't see me walking down that open road,
[03:51.71]I've found someone now who needs me.
[03:56.22]No, you won't see me walking down that open road,
[04:02.03]I've found at last the man who knows me.
[04:07.22]Yes, he knows me and the man is me,
[04:14.44]and the man is me, the man is me.
