Lyrics for Through a Door
Heard a woman through a door Said that she hopes she goes first Couldn't listen anymore And my heart went out to her Hearts can travel through closed doors They can wonder empty holes If you let your heart go free It'll always come back full Home No one noticed it but me No one else was there to see The world that changed a little bit A tiny tear, a tiny rip When I went out and took the stairs So I could think and be alone And my mind was somewhere else But my feet were walking towards my home Home is where the light's on No matter how long you've been gone Home is where the light's on No matter how long you've been gone By tomorrow may it pass Like a shadow or a storm Without darkness is there light? Without night is there a morning? Hearts can travel through hard times They can reach the distant shores And on days I can't find mine I know it's on its way to yours Back home Home is where the light's on No matter how long you've been gone Home is where the light's on No matter how long you've been gone Home is where the light's on No matter how long you've been gone
