Answering the Door Lyrics by Rachael Yamagata

Loose Ends

0

If I could save you, boy
I'd do it a thousand times over
And finally some day it seems
That I meant you well
But I'm not answering the door
We've been this way even more
Time won't be cruel if you let it go its way
And holding on, holding on, holding on something inside
Cost of it don't slip away
You've been my whole life
But I'm not the answering the door
She's leaving inside even more
Time won't be cruel if you let it go its way
I'm letting it today
And don't dare me down
Falling like leaves when they're trading
Some piece of sky for the ground
You catch your soul lifting away
So long but
If I could save you, boy
I'd do it a thousand, thousand times
And maybe in time you will see
I've made up my mind
But I'm not answering the door
She's leaving inside even more
I'm not answering the door
Cause she's leaving inside even more
And if I could save you
I'd do it a thousand times
