The Sealed-Up Door

Текст песни

[Verse 1] You left the key beneath the stone Where winter keeps the garden gate I found your handwriting in the frost A map that led me here too late [Pre-Chorus] The old bell turns without a hand The river holds its breath I hear you calling through the walls From somewhere underneath [Chorus] Call me through the sealed-up door I know the name you gave me then I will cross the water once more And find the way back in again If the dark has kept your face If the years have changed the view I will follow every trace Till I come back to you [Verse 2] The chapel clock is missing twelve Its painted saints have lost their eyes A silver thread runs through the floor And disappears beneath the ice [Pre-Chorus] The old bell turns without a hand The river holds its breath I hear you calling through the walls From somewhere underneath [Chorus] Call me through the sealed-up door I know the name you gave me then I will cross the water once more And find the way back in again If the dark has kept your face If the years have changed the view I will follow every trace Till I come back to you [Bridge] At the edge of the frozen lake Your shadow waits where the reeds bend low One step, and the surface breaks One word, and the buried bells will know [Final Chorus] Call me through the sealed-up door I know the name you gave me then I will cross the water once more And find the way back in again If the dark has kept your face If the years have changed the view I will follow every trace Till I come back to you [Outro] The gate swings wide The frost gives way I know your name I’m here to stay
