Standing In The Doorway lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Standing In The Doorway lyrics I m a-walkin through the summer nights The jukebox playing low Yesterday everything was goin too fast Today it s moving too slow. I got no place left to turn I 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 standin in the doorway cryin I got nothing to go back to now. The light in this place is so bad Makin me sick in the head All the laughter is just makin me sad The stars have turned cherry red. I m strummin on my gay guitar Smokin a cheap cigar The ghost of our old love has not gone away Don t look it like it will any time soon You left me standin in the doorway cryin Under the midnight moon. Maybe they ll get me, and 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 ridin the midnight train Got ice water in my vein. I would be crazy if I took you back It would go up against every rule You left me standin in the doorway cryin Sufferin like a fool. When the last rays of daylight go down Buddy you re older or more I can hear the church bells ringin in the yard I wonder who they re ringin for? I know I can t win But my heart just won t give in. Last night I danced with a stranger But she just reminded me you were the one. You left me standin in the doorway cryin In the dark land of the sun. I ll eat when I m hungry Drink when I m dry And live my life on the square And even if the flesh falls off of my face I know someone will be there to care. It always meaned so much, even the softest touch. I see nothin to be gained by any explanation There s no words that need to be said You left me standin in the doorway cryin Blues wrapped around my head. song lyrics
