There's The Door

Lyrics

I wandered in around midnight
 Like I've done so many times
 She was sittin' at the table
 There were no tears in her eyes
 It seemed so much unlike her
 To be so much at ease
 She took a sip of coffee
 And softly said to me
 "There's the mantle where we keep our wedding picture
 There's the bedroom where we made both love and war
 And there's the ring that keeps on slipping off your finger
 There's no reason we should go on anymore
 And there's the door"
 ♪
 So I'm back here on this bar stool
 My whole world gone to hell
 Behind the bottles there's a mirror
 Where a fool can see himself
 If I were the man I should be
 And not the one I am
 I would go back there this minute
 And beg for one more chance
 There's the jukebox where I wasted all those quarters
 Oh, there's a lady trying to get me out on the floor
 And there's a chance the one I love would still forgive me
 It's a step that I just never took before
 
 And there's the door
 ♪
 There's the door
