Lyrics

Well, whaddaya know? A door locked tight
Opens at last and shows some light
Once more a door you tried and tried
Gives, and you're on the other side
You were unsure, and yet somehow
Look at where you are standing now
Out of the blue, an answer comes to you
You never knew you knew
Nobody thought we'd last
Good thing we never knew it
It's funny how after all these years
We're closer than ever
We had so much to learn
Some days I thought we blew it
But strange as it seems
It took the pain to bind us together
Closer then ever
And now, we're steadier by half
Thank God we learned to laugh
Thank God when you found your "new you"
I loved her, too
We still have our stormy days
Even the worst can't shake us
If all we have come through could not break us
What's ahead can only make us
Stronger than ever
Clearer than ever
I'm closer than ever to you
We still have our stormy days
Even the worst can't shake us
If all we have come through could not break us
What's ahead can only make us
Stronger than ever
Clearer than ever
I'm closer than ever to you
