Knock On Any Door
Unveiling Life's Doors: Jackson Browne's Musical Odyssey
Lyrics
Knock on any door
Invitation to seek opportunities or possibilities
Look through any window
Encouragement to explore different perspectives or viewpoints
Baby knock on any door
Reiteration of the invitation to explore and discover
Knock on any door
Repeat of the invitation, emphasizing openness
Is there any place you want to go
Asking if there's a specific destination in mind
Baby who you lookin' for
Questioning the person being addressed
Yeah, yeah, baby now you know
Acknowledging understanding
It's a cold world like they told you so
Recognizing the harshness of reality
Knock on any door
Reiteration of the invitation to explore
Save your tears for some occasion
Advice to not express emotions unnecessarily
Keep your heartache to yourself
Suggesting to keep personal pain private
Knock on any door
Reiteration of the openness to exploration
It's a simple operation
Describing a simple way to cope (by forgetting)
Just trade your memory for your health
Suggesting a trade-off between memory and well-being
Knock on any door
Reiteration of the invitation to explore
Look through any window
Encouragement to keep looking, keep seeking
Walk on
Indication to continue moving forward
Knock on any door
Reiteration of the invitation to explore
Look through any window
Encouragement to seek different perspectives
Walk on
Encouragement to keep moving forward
It's insane girl, you can't run away
Emphasizing the inability to escape from reality
It's the same world it was yesterday
Highlighting the persistence of the world's nature
Knock on any door
Reiteration of the invitation to explore
Look through any window
Encouragement to seek different perspectives
Walk on
Indication to keep moving forward
Knock on any door
Reiteration of the invitation to explore
Look through any window
Encouragement to seek different perspectives
Walk on
Indication to keep moving forward
Now, now, now how do you survive
Questioning survival amidst real pain in a superficial world
With a pain so real, in a world so jive
Contrasting deep pain with a shallow or insincere world
Knock on any door
Reiteration of the invitation to explore
Look through any window
Encouragement to seek different perspectives
Peek through any shade
Suggesting a discreet or cautious approach
Knock on any door
Reiteration of the invitation to explore
Look through any window
Encouragement to seek different perspectives
Walk on
Encouragement to keep moving forward
