One Door Open

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left your key beside the door A little brass moon on the floor The clock kept counting past the hour While rain ran down the window tower [Pre-Chorus] I read your note by kitchen light Your careful hand, your last goodnight [Chorus] Come back through the winter, come back through the blue The house keeps its secrets, but I still hear you If there’s a road through the dark between us I’ll leave one door open, I’ll leave one door open [Verse 2] Your coat still hangs behind the stair A trace of cedar in the air I take the long way past the station And hold my breath at your old location [Pre-Chorus] The train pulls out, the platform clears I count the years in measured fears [Chorus] Come back through the winter, come back through the blue The house keeps its secrets, but I still hear you If there’s a road through the dark between us I’ll leave one door open, I’ll leave one door open [Bridge] Maybe the past is a room with no handle Maybe the truth is a small steady flame I won’t ask the silence to answer I’ll keep a place for the sound of your name [Final Chorus] Come back through the winter, come back through the blue The house keeps its secrets, but I still hear you If there’s a road through the dark between us I’ll leave one door open, I’ll leave one door open [Outro] One door open One door open
