Closing doors

Closing doors

When we start closing doors

The room that's next to yours

Becomes a lonely place

The thoughts that you embrace

Are lonely too

When did it start to go?

The laughs we used to know

The joy it used to be

And tell me, where is he?

The man I knew


Though you cling to all your yesterdays

Life goes on and always will

Yes or no, stay or go

We're both beyond the status quo

When hello becomes a lie

There's nothing left except

To say goodbye


The need, the hunger grows

Behind the doors that close

You strain and hope to hear

Some footsteps coming near

That never do


Orchestra


Behind the doors we close

The need, the longing grows

You pray and hope to hear

Some footsteps coming near

That never do

It means you're through

It means you're through
