[Arrangement: Bright acoustic guitar strumming. Light percussion. Upbeat and optimistic.]
[Intro]
Pull back the curtain
(Let it all show)
Turn the handle
(And let it go)
A little fresh air
(From the other side)
Come on and open
(Open wide)
[Chorus]
Open the window wide
(Bring in the outside)
Open it the whole way
(And let in the day)
Open the window wide
(Let the sunshine ride)
Open it the whole way
(And enjoy the day)
[Arrangement: Bass and light harmonies enter.]
[Verse 1]
The room felt smaller
(Than it did before)
So I walked over
(To the window’s door)
The world was waiting
(Beyond the pane)
One simple motion
(Changed everything)
[Chorus]
Open the window wide
(Bring in the outside)
Open it the whole way
(And let in the day)
Open the window wide
(Let the sunshine ride)
Open it the whole way
(And enjoy the day)
[Arrangement: Glockenspiel accents. Breezy harmonies.]
[Refrain]
Fresh air blowing
(Rolling through)
Fresh air flowing
(Everything new)
Fresh air blowing
(Clear and free)
Bringing the world
(Back to me)
[Verse 2]
Birds were singing
(Down the street)
Leaves were dancing
(In the heat)
Clouds were drifting
(Across the blue)
Funny how much
(I almost missed of you)
[Arrangement: Drums build. Acoustic strumming becomes fuller.]
[Bridge]
Find out the answer
(Is simple to find)
You open a window
(And open your mind)
A wider horizon
(A brighter view)
The world keeps waiting
(For me and you)
[Arrangement: Full band. Strongest section.]
[Final Chorus]
Open the window wide
(Bring in the outside)
Open it the whole way
(And let in the day)
Open the window wide
(Let the sunshine ride)
Open it the whole way
(And enjoy the day)
Open the window wide
(Bring in the outside)
Open it the whole way
(And let in the day)
[Arrangement: Instruments gradually soften. Acoustic guitar and harmonies remain.]
[Outro]
Open the window
(Just a little more)
Open the window
(Like never before)
Open the window wide
(Bring in the outside)
Open it the whole way
(And let in the day)
