I'm standing here reaching out to you
But I can't get through, you're always on your guard
I see you there with that childish stare breakin' me apart
I'll keep you safe if you'll unarm your heart

We live our lives with the thought in mind
Love is hard to find, but that's not really true
If only you wouldn't turn away, we could make a start
I'll keep you safe if you'll unarm your heart

(If you just open up...)
Lay your weapons down
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right

When will you know I'm always on your side?
How many more places are there to hide?
Come on out, there'll be no harm if you'll unarm your heart

I'm standing here reaching out to you
Please just let me through if it's all right with you
'Cause whatever you are afraid to try might just make you cry
But that's a start if you'll unarm your heart

(If you just open up...)
Lay your weapons down, yeah
(If you just open up...)
It's all right, it's all right, all right
(If you just open up your heart...)
Yeah, it's all right, all right, all right
(If only you could unarm your heart)
(We could make a brand new start)
