The Door That Has No Frame

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left the silver key beneath the stair The candle bent though nothing stirred the air I traced your name along the frost-black pane And heard the old house answer back again [Pre-Chorus] The water in the basin turned like ink A face appeared before I had time to blink [Chorus] Come through the veil, come speak my name Draw near the door that has no frame I feel you moving under stone A borrowed breath inside my own [Verse 2] The moon was caught in branches like a thread Your velvet ribbon circled round the bed I held it up; the room grew cold and still Then footsteps crossed the landing at my will [Pre-Chorus] The water in the basin turned like ink A face appeared before I had time to blink [Chorus] Come through the veil, come speak my name Draw near the door that has no frame I feel you moving under stone A borrowed breath inside my own [Bridge] If you are waiting, let the mirror break If you are calling, give the walls a shake I have no prayer to keep you far away I only ask what price I have to pay [Final Chorus] Come through the veil, come speak my name Draw near the door that has no frame I feel you moving under stone A borrowed breath inside my own [Outro] The key is warm against my hand The door is open where I stand
