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 inside

 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 its 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 brothers

 You open up your heart come on make a start

 Try not to hide what you feel inside

 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 when you open up your heart

 Give your love to others they become your brothers

 You open up your heart come on make a start

 Try not to hide what you feel inside

 Just open up your heart
