The doorway--track 1
The doorway
Let me sing to your heart's content
Of the songs that we knew but we never sent
On their way.
Let me tell you of the story
Of a soul who has knelt in the cold
Of a dark night
And regained her sight.
Take a part
Let these chords inspire
Form the colors of the morning
And your heart's desire
In your mind.
Come with me to the part of the heart
That we know beyond our reaching
And we all share--
Let me sing you past your despair.
This time will pass
And you'll grow to the point
That you know who you are.
You won't go there,
To this place that you've been,
Till the next time
But this song will remind you that
You've been there before.
It's a doorway.
Let me sing,
Let me sing,
Let me sing you past the yearning
For the things that you sought
To the fraction of a second
When a heartbeat stops
And begins again.
Take a breath and then another
Like you had a choice.
Hear the voice of a mother,
Or a sister or a brother,
A sparrow or a cat or a dog,
A beloved friend.
Hear the rain outside your window
When you're cozy in your bed
It is all of your dreams
Not a one.
Come a little closer
You could lean upon my shoulder
And I'll hold you here.
You could come a little closer
And then lean upon my shoulder
And I'll hold you here.
Let me sing.
Let me sing.
Let me sing.
Sing away your tears.

Come a little closer
You could lean upon my shoulder
And I'll hold you here.
This song will remind you that
You've been there before.
It's a doorway.
You could come a little closer
And then lean upon my shoulder
And I'll hold you here.
Let me sing
Let me sing
Let me sing.
Let me sing.
Sing away your tears.
Let me sing away your fears.
Let me sing away your tears.
Let me sing.
