Standing in the Doorway - 2022 Remix

Lyrics

I'm walkin' through the summer nights
 The jukebox playing low
 Yesterday everything was goin' too fast
 Today it's movin' too slow
 I got no place left to turn
 I got nothin' left to burn
 Don't know, if I saw you, if I would kiss you or kill you
 It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow
 You left me standing in the doorway cryin'
 I got nothin' to go back to now
 The light in this place is so bad
 Makin' me sick in the head
 All the laughter is just makin' me sad
 The stars have turned cherry red
 I'm strummin' on my gay guitar
 Smokin' a cheap cigar
 The ghost of our old love has not gone away
 Don't look it like it will anytime soon
 You left me standin' in the doorway cryin'
 Under the midnight moon
 ♪
 Maybe they'll get me and maybe they won't
 But not tonight and it won't be here
 There are things I could say, but I don't
 I know the mercy of God must be near
 I been ridin' a midnight train
 Got ice water in my veins
 I would be crazy if I took you back
 It would go up against every rule
 You left me standin' in the doorway cryin'
 Sufferin' like a fool
 ♪
 When the last rays of daylight go down
 Buddy, you're old no more
 I can hear the church bells ringin' in the yard
 I wonder who they're ringin' for?
 I know I can't win
 But my heart just won't give in
 Last night I danced with a stranger
 But she just reminded me you were the one
 You left me standin' in the doorway cryin'
 In the dark land of the sun
 ♪
 I eat when I'm hungry, drink when I'm dry
 And live my life on the square
 And even if the flesh falls off of my face
 I know someone will be there to care
 It always means so much
 Even the softest touch
 I see nothing to be gained by any explanation
 There's no words that need to be said
 You left me standin' in the doorway cryin'
 Blues wrapped around my head
