Open Doors
Lyricist：Josh Ritter
I thought I heard you pulling up outside
It's just the wind whispering through the pines
I haven't seen who I'm looking for
Just empty shadows in my open door
The empty closet where you hung your clothes
The empty hooks where you hung your coat
The cellar steps or the kitchen floor
They don't catch shadows like an open door
Do open windows keep the rain away?
Do open eyes keep the ghosts at bay?
I thought an open door would bring you in
Now, guess I'm gonna have to guess again
I find myself hoping for a storm
Each silver lining is a crown of thorns
I find myself hoping for the rain
You don't see shadows on a cloud day
Go to the corner where the ghosts hang out
They'll all agree with what I'm talking about

They'd haunt your halls and walk through the walls
Before they'd ever set food in an open door
Do open windows keep the rain away?
Do open eyes keep the ghosts at bay?
I thought an open door would bring you in
Now, guess I'm gonna have to guess again
I'm saving nickels and I'm saving dimes
I'm gonna kiss you where the sun don't shine
And all those shadows gonna kiss them too
Just so long as they come in with you
Do open windows keep the rain away?
Do open eyes keep the ghosts at bay?
I thought an open door would bring you in
I guess I'm gonna have to guess again
I guess I'm gonna have to guess again
I guess I'm gonna have to guess again
Guess, I'm gonna have to guess again
