"Standing In The Doorway" lyrics
"Standing In The Doorway"
(originally by Bob Dylan)
I'm walking through the summer nights
Jukebox playing low
Yesterday everything was going too fast
Today, it's moving too slow
I got no place left to turn
Got nothing left to burn
Don't know if I saw you, if I would kiss you or kill you
It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow
You left me standing in the doorway crying
I got nothing to go back to now
The light in this place is oh, so bad
Making me sick in the head
All the laughter is just making me sad
The stars have turned cherry red
I'm strumming on my gay guitar
Smoking a cheap cigar
The ghost of our old love has not gone away
Don't look like it will anytime soon
You left me standing in the doorway crying
Under the midnight moon
Maybe they'll get me, maybe they won't
But not tonight and it won't be here
There are things I could say but I don't
I know the mercy of God must be near
I've been riding the midnight train
Got ice water in my veins
I would be crazy if I took you back
It would go up against every rule
You left me standing in the doorway crying
Suffering like a fool
You left me standing in the doorway crying
Suffering like a fool

HAIM - "The Steps" So baby, when I'm near you
You can't feel me, I'm lightnin'
You used to come by
And sit down by my side

Sharon Van Etten - "Seventeen" I know what you wanna say
I think that you're all the same
Constantly being led astray
You think you know something you don't

I used to be...
Big Thief - "Certainty" Name on the line
Last request
Pull the car over
To find some rest
Saying "I love you"
Need to lie here
Need to leave
Living in the debt of make believe
Saying I owe you
Crooked as a crow gnawing on...
