Door ajar

Door ajar

Door ajar

Door ajar.

I hit my head on the pillow, hard

I heard a noise from the boulevard

And it made me go down.

I left the door to my room ajar

Felt the rumble of the street-car

And it spiralled me down.

If you could see me

Swallowed by darkness

What would it matter?

Would it awaken

Feelings forsaken

Faded and scattered?

Would you come running

If you could hear me

Some way or another?

That's what I'm thinking

Watching the stars reflect in the gutter.

Door ajar

Door ajar.

I hit my heard on the pillow, hard

I took the words that you said to heart

And it made me feel down.

When I awoke, it was dark outside

Just a flicker from a traffic light

And it signaled me down.

If you could see me

Swallowed in darkness

What would it matter?

Would it awaken

Feelings forsaken

Faded and scattered?

Would you come running

If you could hear me

Some way or another?

That's what I'm thinking

Watching the stars reflect in the gutter.

And if you don't want me now

Then I doubt you ever will

There is nothing I can add

To clinch the deal

And if you don't see me now

And you haven't done so far

In case you change your mind

I'll leave the door ajar

Door ajar

Door ajar

Door ajar.
