Jericho

[Verse 1]

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 there was something to strive for

[Verse 2]

I'll try to keep myself open up to you

And approve your self expression

'Cause I need that from you, too

I need your confidence, baby

And the gift of your extra time

In turn I'll give you mine

Sweet darling, it's a rich exchange

Seems to me

It's a warm arrangement

[Bridge]

Anyone will tell you

Just how hard it is to make and keep a friend

Ah 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

[Verse 3]

I'll try to keep myself open up to you

It's easier and easier to do

Just like Jericho

Let the walls come tumbling down

Falling on the ground

And all the dogs go running free

The wild and the gentle dogs

Kenneled in me
