about

Our streets won’t cross and time won’t bend
Everything is torn, the fray won’t mend
The past is gone I cry on cue
There’s stairs to nowhere, the door is shut to you

lyrics

The Door is Shut to You

If I could give a songbird a message everyday
She would fly it to your window and it would say:
I miss the final mornings before we knew
There were stairs to nowhere, the door is shut to you

I’d re-invent the wheel if I only could
Put us both on it, and roll away for good
We’d be together always, stuck like glue
But it’s stairs to nowhere, the door is shut to you

There’s no answer, I can’t get through
The line is cut, it's stairs to nowhere
The door is shut to you

The days are quiet like shadows on the wall
I sit and watch the window exempt from it all
The house is empty, I am too
Just stairs to nowhere, the door is shut to you

There’s no answer, that I can get to
The line is cut, it's stairs to nowhere
The door is shut to you

Parties are a drag I hate to go out
There’s not much I can bear to talk about
People ask what’s going on, hey what’s new
