Oh, I hear familiar sounds down the sidewalk   Gettin' closer with every step he takes   Lord, I'm so afraid that if I look out the window   I'll be tempted to repeat an old mistake      Don't open that door to an old memory   When he said goodbye, I locked it up tight   And threw out the key, I've stood here before   Lord I can't stand no more, won't go there again   Heart don't let him in, don't open that door      The stronger me has found the will to fight it   But now he's gone and the weaker side's in tears   Lord, it took so long to put the hurt behind me   If I don't look back the past can't find me here      Don't open that door to an old memory   When he said goodbye, I locked it up tight   And threw out the key, I've stood here before   Lord I can't stand no more, won't go there again   Heart don't let him in, don't open that door      Won't go there again   Heart don't let him in, don't you open that door
