[Intro] [Verse 1] This being human, it’s a guest house door Every dawn brings something more A knock, a whisper, soft or loud Another soul wrapped in a cloud [Pre-chorus] Joy walks in with laughing eyes Sorrow drifts in wearing disguise Meanness comes with bitter wine Each one here by grand design [Chorus] Welcome them all, don’t shut the gate They bring a message, small or great Even the storm that strips your floor Might clear the space for something more [transition] [Verse 2] The dark thought, shame, and hidden spite Come dancing in through morning light Don't turn away, don't hide your grin Let the messengers settle in [pre-chorus] The room they shake may soon be clean Making way for things unseen Each emotion, loud or mild Is a teacher in disguise [Chorus] Welcome them all, don’t shut the gate They bring a message, small or great Even the storm that strips your floor Might clear the space for something more [Instrumental Interlude] [Chorus] Welcome them all, don’t shut the gate They bring a message, small or great Even the storm that strips your floor Might clear the space for something more [Outro] Be grateful for who comes through They’re all guides sent here for you This guest house soul—forever new
