The Girl Behind The Door Lyrics - Singles - Eleanor Shore

We hear each other stopped outside our door 

Breathless quiet with your head against the wood 

We listen for the sound of shufflin' feet 

And hear if you're still awake 

On the edge of your bed you sit up straight 

Talkin' in your sleep about your fear of being alone 

I hear you through this polished wooden door 

That separates us now Close your eyes 

Your eyes are fighting a war 

With the ghost in your head 

You fall away again 

Toss and turn inside your own head 

Your eyes break form again 

You speak a prayer to anyone who cares 

Your quiet footsteps echo through this town 

While it sleeps you carry the weight of the world 

I hear you through this polished wooden door 

That separates us now 

Close your eyes 

Your eyes are fighting a war 

With the ghost in your head 

Your soul cracks again 

On your back is where the world stands 

Your have fallen down again 

Close your eyes and slowly count to ten 

She's coming home
