At Death's Door

歌詞

I run my desperate trembling hands Along the floor were you once walked Fighting tears that come from loss I brave the rooms where we once talked You took a part of me I never can reclaim Your spirit's in my heart But you know it's not the same Straining to beat this blur of tears Swollen eyes beg for my dead friend Reminiscing with a photograph Drives home (that) what was won't be again I will to guarantee my reason will prevail Pain breeds the need for make believe To soothe a heart that's fail Like a wind-up clock left in the rain Like a candle burns away its light We all suffer at death's door As surely as day turns into night I drop down to my knees and plead with the sky Of course it does no good But i'll give anything a try Gazing,thinking,standing on a cliff That guards the blue-green of the sea I accept the blueprint of the world,that All must pass away that's come to be You meant so much to me That's why there's all this pain So much improved from our exchange It will never be same Like a wind-up clock left in the rain Like a candle burns away its light We all suffer at death's door As surely as day turns into night Like a wind-up clock left in the rain Like a candle burns away its light We all suffer at death's door We all suffer loss... As surely day changes into night (Music: B.Cline, P.Craddick) (Lyrics: P.Craddick)
