Door ajar

Door ajar

Door ajar.

I hit my head on the pillow, hard

I heard a noise from the boulevard

And it made me go down

I left the door to my room ajar

Felt the rumble of the street-car

And it spiraled me down.

If you could see me

Swallowed in darkness

What would it matter

Would it awaken

Feelings forsaken

Faded and scattered

Would you come running

If you could hear me

Some way or another

That's what I'm thinking

Watching the stars reflect in the gutter

Door ajar

Door ajar.

I hit my head on the pillow, hard

I took the words that you said to heart

And it made me feel down

When I awoke it was dark outside

Just a flicker from a traffic light

And it signaled me down.

If you could see me

Swallowed in darkness

What would it matter

Would it awaken

Feelings forsaken

Faded and scattered

Would you come running

If you could hear me

Some way or another

That's what I'm thinking

Watching the stars reflect in the gutter

Door ajar

Door ajar

Door ajar

Door ajar

Door ajar.
