Train to His Door

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Met you on my screen In a small blue glow Three years of good mornings From a place I didn’t know You said, “One day soon” And I held that line Kept your voice in my pocket Like a lucky sign [Pre-Chorus] I bought the ticket Heard my heart say go Crossed the water for you For the life we’d grow I never asked too much I just trusted your name Thought love was patient Thought love meant the same [Chorus] Three years, three years I was yours, I was yours Three years, three years I walked right to your door I said your name like a prayer You looked like a man caught bare Three years, three years I was yours, I was yours [Verse 2] Your street was quiet Your window had gold Saw two cups on the table And a coat in the cold Then she came from the kitchen With her hand in yours Smiled like she knew me Like she’d seen me before [Pre-Chorus] My suitcase fell open All my dreams hit the floor You said, “It’s not what it looks like” I’d heard that before She stared at my face Then at you, then away And I felt my whole future Turn to ash in a day [Chorus] Three years, three years I was yours, I was yours Three years, three years I walked right to your door I said your name like a prayer You looked like a man caught bare Three years, three years I was yours, I was yours [Bridge] I came for forever Found a lie with a ring You had two different worlds And I got none of the thing So keep all your promises Keep all your pretty words I’ll take back my seasons And the love that you stole first [Final Chorus] Three years, three years I was yours, I was yours Three years, three years Now I’m walking from your door I said your name like a prayer But you never answered there Three years, three years I was yours, I was yours [Outro] I was yours I was yours Until I saw the truth
