One More Door

歌词

[Verse 1] You keep the receipt folded in your coat Bus pass bent where the corner tore Your old blue thermos rattles when you walk Same chipped lid from the hardware store You said, “We’ll make it work,” and meant the rent Counted every coin beside the sink Now the shop sign’s lit before the dawn And you’re still here before I even blink [Chorus] One more day, one more door Put your name where they said there’s no room Hands stay steady, feet hit the floor You make a little space and make it bloom One more day, one more try Take the long way, still arrive When the whole world says, “Not yet” You’re the reason I don’t quit [Verse 2] Mara keeps the keys on a safety pin Dad’s lunch note says, “Call me when you can” The bakery’s warm at six fifteen Flour on your sleeve, a plan in your hand You took the night class after closing time Practiced on a paper cup with a pen Now the back room’s yours, the lease is signed You turned that “maybe” into “when” [Chorus] One more day, one more door Put your name where they said there’s no room Hands stay steady, feet hit the floor You make a little space and make it bloom One more day, one more try Take the long way, still arrive When the whole world says, “Not yet” You’re the reason I don’t quit [Bridge] I saw the doubt behind your grin The late bus, the wet cuffs, the thin weeks You didn’t wait for luck to find you You kept showing up, kept turning the key [Final Chorus] One more day, one more door Put your name where they said there’s no room Hands stay steady, feet hit the floor You make a little space and make it bloom One more day, one more try Take the long way, still arrive When the whole world says, “Not yet” You’re the reason I don’t quit [Outro] You’re the reason I don’t quit One more day, one more door
