Doorway Songtext

von Civil Twilight

Cold lips, cold hands, cold feet on the street
There's no shelter for the heart's beat
Faster and faster the winds blow down from the north
Sweeping these streets like ghost on a march to war
A march to war

Outside there's a silhouette changing your name
Changing your face every time I look away
We sway in the yellow light
With no more strength to fight

There's so many dreams that fade away
There's so many lives I just can't save
If you want this so bad then why do you stand
Like you do in the doorway?

Come in, come in, come in, come in, come in, come in
Come in, I never wanted anything like I want you
Come in, I never wanted anything like I want you
Like I want you

There's so many dreams that fade away
There's so many lives I just can't save
If you want this so bad then why do you stand
Like you do in the doorway?

If this is it then why do I wait?
All tangled up in the strings I flipped
If I want this so bad then why do I stand like I do?

Come in, I never wanted anything like I want you
Come in, I never wanted anything like I want you

Come in, come in, come in, come in
Come in, come in, come in, come in
Come in, come in, come in, come in
Come in, come in, come in, come in
