Does anyone has the lyrics and gutiar chords for the Judy Collins song " Open the door and come on in " ? I was surprised not to find it in the directory. Thanks for your help! Rachel

OPEN THE DOOR
(Judy Collins)


Sometimes I remember the old days
When the world was filled with sorrow
You might have thought I was livin'
But I was all alone

In my heart the rain was fallin
The wind blew and
The night was callin
Come back, come back, I'm all you've ever known

CHORUS
Open the door and come on in
I'm so glad to see you my friend
You're like a rainbow
comin around the bend
And when I see you smilin
Well, it sets my heart free
I'd like to be as good a friend to you
As you are to me

There were friends who could always see me
Through the haze their smiles would reach me
Saying okay, saying good-bye, saying hello

Soon I knew just what I was after
Was life and love, tears and laughter
Hello, my good friend, hello my darlin
What do you know

CHORUS

I used to think it was only me feeling alone
Not feeling free to be alive to be a friend
Now I know we all have stormy weather
The sun shines through when we're together
I'll be your friend right through to the end


CHORUS

^^

Well, since we obviously have some Judy Collins fans here, I'll ask if any of YOU remember or have the lyrics for the song that goes,

"I ran around with the same little crowd
The usual laughs, not often but loud
But in the world that I knew
I didn't know about you.

I looked and looked at all her CDs I found on amazon.com and couldn't find that one (although I did find "From Where I stand," which I really love).

Anyone? Anyone?

Go here.

Click on the FANS icon on the left side, and within, you'll find a link for lyrics to many of her songs.

Believe that's on "Running for My Life" which I only have on vinyl. May have been a casualty of the big black/little silver wheel shift.

I didn't see that title on the website, Dee, but thanks for the attempt. Yes, I think maybe that LP is one that didn't make it to CD. I used to have it, but it ended up being jettisoned someplace along the way.

Oh well. Thought I'd give it a shot.

Thanks, WW
