close the door 

by brendan philip mccusker

verse 1

silk satin sky

with a cloud of cotton candy blue

soft spoken lie

from a rosy red point of view

god knows i’ve tried

trading power for the truth

i don’t know why

i was always so close to you

pre

night falls a little bit too soon

& i guess i call too late now

chorus

if i told you i was yours

would i be the one you waited for

if your eyes won’t say the words

when you’re leaving could you close the door

verse 2

old lullaby

from a woman walking on the moon well running dry

leaving in a hot air ballon

pre 2

god knows we tried

trading happiness for youth

i guess i call too late now…

chorus

if i told you i was yours

would i be the one you waited for

if your eyes won’t say the words

when you’re leaving could you close the door
