Standing in the Doorway |
| I’ve been walking through the Summer nights |
| The jukebox playing low |
| Yesterday everything was going too fast |
| Today it’s moving too slow |
| I’ve got no place left to turn |
| I’ve got nothing left to burn |
| I don’t know if I saw you |
| If I would kiss you or kill you |
| It probably wouldn’t matter to you anyhow |
| You left me standing in the doorway crying |
| I got nothing to go back to now |
| The light in this place is so bad |
| Making me sick in the head |
| All the laughter is just making me sad |
| The stars have turned cherry red |
| I’m strumming on my gay guitar |
| Smoking a cheap cigar |
| The ghost of our old love |
| Has not gone away |
| Not looking like it will any time soon |
| You left me standing in the doorway crying |
| Under the midnight moon |
| Maybe they’ll get me And maybe they won’t |
| But not tonight and it won’t be here |
| There are things I could stay |
| But I don’t |
| I know the mercy of God must be near |
| I been riding a midnight train |
| Got ice water in my veins |
| I would be crazy |
| If I took you back |
| It would go up against every rule |
| You left me standing in the doorway crying |
| Suffering like a fool |
| When the last rays of daylight go down |
| Buddy, you’ll roll no more |
| I can hear the church bells ringing in the yard |
| I wonder who they’re ringing for |
| I know I can’t win |
| But my heart just won’t give in Last night I danced with a stranger |
| But she just reminded me you were the one |
| You left me standing in the doorway crying |
| In the dark land of the sun |
| I’ll eat when I’m hungry, drink when I’m dry |
| And live my life on the square |
| And even if the flesh falls off of my face |
| I know someone will be there to care |
| It always means so much |
| Even the softest touch |
| I see nothing to be gained by any explanation |
| There are no words that need to be said |
| You left me standing in the doorway crying |
| Blues wrapped around my head |
