Closing Doors

When we start closing doors
The room that's next to yours
Becomes a lonely place
The thoughts that you embrace
Are lonely too
When did it start to go?
The laughs we used to know
The joy it used to be
And tell me, where is he?
The man I knew

Though you cling to all your yesterdays
Life goes on and always will
Yes or no, stay or go
We're both beyond the status quo
When hello becomes a lie
There's nothing left except
To say goodbye

The need, the hunger grows
Behind the doors that close
You strain and hope to hear
Some footsteps coming near
That never do

Behind the doors we close
The need, the longing grows
You pray and hope to hear
Some footsteps coming near
That never do
It means you're through
It means you're through
