"A Door Called No" lyrics
David Byrne & Ghost Train Orchestra Lyrics
"A Door Called No"
I went to the place where I was told I should go
But when I got there, there was a, a door called 'no'
I met with a man who said I should know
That you cannot go in when the, the door says n'o'
He said, "Not so fast, you've got to go slow
And these things take time if the, the door says 'no'"
It said, "Don't open me, sir. There's a reason I'm closed, and
And no one can enter as everyone knows"
Then I met a girl, she gave me a kiss
I discovered a world where the door says 'yes'
I began to see things, there's more and not less
Every atom and tree is shouting out 'yes'
Every thought that we have, every step, every guess
Every sound, every stone, the whole world is 'yes'
From my head to my toes, even I can be blessed
The change, it has come, it is forever 'yes'

So at least she could get some enjoyment out of being alone
No one could say that she was left up on the shelf
