Title:
“Through the Door”
Full Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G]Look at the sun, [C]going down the lane,
[D]Silhouettes dancing, [G]in the pouring rain.
[C]Memories flood, [D]as I stand by the door,
[G]Reminiscing of the [C]days, [D]we don’t have anymore.
(Chorus)
[G]Through the door, [C]we saw the world,
[D]Dreamt of places, [G]stories unfurled.
[C]Through this door, [D]we’ve seen sunsets and dawns,
[G]From the dusk of yesterday, [C]to the hope of [D]newborn fawns.
(Verse 2)
[G]Hear the music, [C]the old man plays,
[D]Echoes of childhood, [G]in those good old days.
[C]Standing here, [D]by the rectangular door,
[G]I see the past, [C]present, [D]and so much more.
(Chorus)
[G]Through the door, [C]we found our song,
[D]Moments of joy, [G]where we belong.
[C]Through this door, [D]we walked hand in hand,
[G]A journey together, [C]in this mystic [D]land.
