K.d. Lang - Jericho lyrics

I'll try to keep myself open up to you That's a promise that I made to love When it was new, "just like Jericho" I said "Let the walls come tumbling down" Said it like I finally found the way To keep the good feelings alive I said it like it was something to strive for I'll try to keep myself open up to you And approve your self-expression, 'cause I need that, funny, too I need your confidence, baby And the gift of your extra time In return I'll give you mine, sweet darling It's a rich exchange, seems to me It's a warm arrangement Anyone will tell you Just how hard it is to make and keep a friend Now, maybe they'll short-sell you Or maybe it's you Judas, in the end When you just can no longer pretend That you're getting what you need Or you're giving off anything for them to grow and feed on I'll try to keep myself open up to you It gets easier and easier to do Just like Jericho Let the walls come tumbling down now Fallin' on the ground And all the dogs go running free The wild and the gentle dogs Kenneled in me
