"The Door" lyrics

"The Door"

Show me a bridge, they say don't burn it
And I'll soak it to the bolts in gasoline
Give me a lesson and tell me to learn it
And I'll make damn sure I didn't learn a thing

Living on the edge just trying to edge a little bit closer
Running out of luck like a field full of three leaf clovers

Thank God for hands that saved a sinking man from drowning
Them hearts that don't keep tabs on the times you let 'em down
And I fought that fire inside of me
That fueled those nights that lied to me
Like that bottle lying empty on the floor
Sometimes it takes an angel
To show the devil the door

Well, I've been tempted as long as I've been breathing
But these days the devil don't hold his breath
And she got a habit of breaking all my bad ones
And bringing out what good I've got left
Anybody else, hell, they'd just pass and judge me
But she just loves me

Thank God for hands that saved a sinking man from drowning
Them hearts that don't keep tabs on the times you let 'em down
And I fought that fire inside of me
That fueled those nights that lied to me
Like that bottle lying empty on the floor
Sometimes it takes an angel
To show the devil the door

Thank God for hands that saved a sinking man from drowning
She could've counted me out more times than I could count
And I fought that fire inside of me
That fueled those nights that lied to me
Like that bottle lying empty on the floor
Sometimes it takes an angel
To show the devil the door

And sometimes it takes an angel
To show the devil the door
