"Door Number Three" lyrics
"Door Number Three"
Door number two
It's for you, little lady
Is it all that you dreamed of?
Oh, if I knew what had been there waiting
I'd have screamed out and jumped up
Now here I am
With my feet on the sand
And a body that won't move
The tide's coming in
And I'm bound for a swim
In a pair of cement shoes
He takes what he can, what he wants
Doesn't matter if it's ever been given
I took the bait and a chance on a man
Sold by the boy that he lived in
And I was wrong to believe that strength makes you strong
And I had hope in a change I would see in us both
And now I'm heavy
He lifts me, but never once carried
Door number two, I've already walked through
Ask me the question:
Who coulda guessed I would be here at this crossroad?
Plain to be seen that it's all up to me
I'm no longer alone, though
And nothing's changed
And I see it more every day
Nothing moves
It's a game to be played and to lose
And now I'm heavy, unsteady
But maybe I'm getting ready
And this might catch fire and char this ground
I might lift this up to only be the one
Who's gonna get let down
Will I be enough to get this on its way
To find some higher ground?
Before the waters rush, I've got to make a change
Or else I know I'll drown
Baby, look around
Door number two, I've already walked through
I wanna see what's behind door number three

If I could just be where you are
We’d have a show
Like performers living life on the go

You share a lot in common
With my husband Jase
You have the same car
So either he sold it
Or maybe you stole it
And didn't change the plates

Like we've met...

David Cook - "The Time Of My Life" I’ve been waiting for my dreams
To turn into something
I could believe in
And looking for that
Magic rainbow
On the horizon
I couldn’t see it
Until I let go
