There's no formula for happiness, that's guaranteed to work

It all depends on how you treat your friends

And how much you've been hurt

But it's a start, when you open up your heart

And try not to hide, what you feel insi-i-ide

Just open up your heart

There's no dreamer who's ever dreamed, and seen it all come true

Takes a lot of time and breaks a lot of hearts, to see an idea through

And love's just a simple word, it's truth is eas'ly lost

And sorry's said so easily, nobody counts the cost

But it's a start, when you open up your heart

Give your love to others, they become your bro-o-other

You open up your heart, come on, make a start

Try not to hide, what you feel insi-i-ide

Just open up your heart

But it's a start, you open up your heart

Give your love to others, they become your bro-o-other

You open up your heart, come on, make a start

Try not to hide, what you feel insi-i-ide

Just open up your heart

There's no formula for happiness that's guaranteed to work

And no lover's ever been in love, and not been hurt

No dreamer's ever dreamed, and seen it all come true

In the end you find the things that count, a look to me and you

But it's a start, you open up your heart

Give your love to others, they become your bro-o-other

You open up your heart, come on, make a start

Try not to hide, what you feel insi-i-ide

Just open up your heart, look for another love

Try not to hide, what you feel insi-i-ide (fade)
