Doors Don't Close Lyrics

I'm standing at this front porch screen just staring at my keys

It's different than it was before with you not here anymore

But I'll walk right in and leave it open

In the back of my mind, I'm still hoping

You'll come back if I don't close it

I've fixed the lock, I've oiled the hinges

But I keep feeling that resistance

To just do more, to shut this door

The frame was strong made out of stone

But now it's breaking up my home

I tried to make it work from the ceiling to the floor

But what do you do, oh

When doors don't close

Cold wind keeps sneaking in there's some damage I can't fix

But I don't want anyone tonight to help me make it right

So I'll use a blanket to block the breeze

And keep warm with the memories

I've fixed the lock, I've oiled the hinges

But I keep feeling that resistance

To just do more, to shut this door

The frame was strong made out of stone

But now it's breaking up my home

I tried to make it work from the ceiling to the floor

But what do you do, oh

When doors don't close

Every time I try to shut you out, you keep coming back

And it starts all over

Only thing I do is just fool myself, and let you back in

It's easier to hang on than to let go

It's easier to hang on than to let go

I've fixed the lock, I've oiled the hinges

But I keep feeling that resistance

To just do more, I can't shut this door

The frame was strong made out of stone

But now its breaking up my home

I tried to make it work from the ceiling to the floor

But what do you do

But what do you do, oh

When doors don't close

When doors don't close

Doors don't close
