Lyrics

Standing in the Doorway

I can see you standing outside

See your shadow on the wall by a street lamp

I've got a manual instructing my brain

I turn around, cover eyes, I see you

Standing in the doorway;

Standing in the doorway

I can see you

Standing in the doorway;

Standing in the doorway

I can see you

I can see you walking behind

See your face silhouetted in the half light

I've got a manual instructing my brain

I turn around, cover eyes, I see you

Standing in the doorway;

Standing in the doorway

I can see you

Standing in the doorway;

Standing in the doorway

I can see you

I can feel your presence inside

Like a chill, like the point of a sharp knife

Instruction manual instructing my brain

I turn around, cover eyes, I see you

Standing in the doorway;

Standing in the doorway

I can see you

Standing in the doorway

Standing in the doorway

Standing in the doorway

Standing in the doorway

Standing in the doorway

Standing in the doorway

Standing in the doorway

Standing in the doorway
