Doors - Look Left

I opened up the cupboard today

Filing through what we had

I think it’s gonna be the only way

I guess it really wasn’t that bad

Looking back, it’s been a while

The film grain can’t hide my smile

Couple years, you call him yours

And I’ll shrug, and shut more doors

I’ll light up the porch lamps

Hoping for some great unrest

But the men outside put the clamps

On the brightest, tightest and best

Looking back, it’s been a while

The film grain can’t hide my smile

Seven years, the rain still pours

And I shrug, and shut more doors

The fight was one I could not win

At least if I gave it enough

But it wasn’t losing that killed within

But winning on your bluff

Looking back, it’s been a while

The film grain can’t hide my smile

Seven years, the rain still pours

And I shrug, and shut more doors

no I shut it if I can’t lock it then I’ll hafta

beat it outta you beat it outta you

Looking back, it’s been a while

The film grain finally hides my smile

Twenty years, I couldn’t ask for more

And I’ll forget, and close the last door.
