open the gate
(e. stefani, g. stefani, t. dumont, t. kanal, a. young)

i see you from a distance
from behind the fence you made
you're hiding all your feelings behind a barricade
have you been invaded?
is this the reason why you hide?
i know just how you're feeling
i know, let me inside.

open the gate up
open the gate up - hurry!
open the gate up
hurry!

i want to get near you
but you just wont let me in
'cause you're so scared of losing everything you've got within
come on now, you can trust me
come on, open the door
'cause i know just how you're feeling
i know, i've been there before!

open the gate up
open the gate up - hurry!
open the gate up
hurry! hurry! hurrrrry! hurry!

and do it right now, do it right now, do it right now, do it right now
hurry!
mmchica!

ohhhhh do it right now, do it right now, do it right now, do it right now
do it right now, do it right now, do it right now, do it right now
hurry!!

open the gate up
open the gate up - hurry!
open the gate up
hurry! hurry! hurrrrry! hurry!

open the gate up
open the gate up
or i'm gonna knock the damn door down
open the gate up
open the gate up
or i'm gonna knock the damn door down
open the gate up
open the gate up
or i'm gonna knock the damn door down
down
down.
