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 re- peat an old mis- take
Don't open that door to an old memo- ry
When he said good- bye, I locked it up tight and threw out the key
I've stood here be fore, Lord I can't stand no more
Won't go there a- gain, 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 be- hind me
If I don't look back the past can't find me here
Don't open that door to an old memo- ry
When he said good- bye, I locked it up tight and threw out the key
I've stood here be fore, Lord I can't stand no more

Won't go there a- gain, heart don't let him in
Don't you open that door
