Written about that time in a romance when you've had enough.

lyrics

Close the Door
(c) 2011 Nathan Windsor

When I think back on all of the time that’s passed
And I see the long dark shadows cast
Well you know sometimes,
I just need to cry.

See you and me babe, we had all the cards
But the game was rigged and the dice were tossed
And a cheating hand
Don’t need an alibi

So just close the door,
I can’t take anymore
I can’t take anymore

Still in the evening I can hear you breathe
And feel you lying next to me
And my hair raise up,
like I just seen a ghost

Some say salvation is worth the price
But there ain’t no ticket to paradise
And I know it’s your spirit
Is what I miss the most

Long is the night of a lonely man
Who carries a cigarette in his hand
And he wears the soul
rubber down on his shoes

And now I realize just what I lost
So I nail myself back upon the cross
One final prayer:
I hope I can get to you.
