Wrong Side of the Door

Late night green light glowing on the screen,
Laughing off the miles and the years between.
You told me now just ain't the time,
I heard you, girl. I won't cross that line.

Watching you fight through every storm,
Keeping you safe, keeping you warm.
Got everything I could ever need,
Except the one thing I can't have, that's you.

Now I'm on the wrong side of the door,
Swore to God I wouldn't knock no more.
You closed it soft, you closed it kind,
Left every piece of my heart behind.
Standing at yours.
Right back at the wrong side of the door.

Hear your laughter on the other end,
Acting like it's easy to pretend.
Healin' scars that don't belong to me,
Holding the line so you can breathe.

Standing guard while your world resets,
Carrying weight that you won't forget.
Got everything I could ever need,
Except the one thing I can't have, that's you.

Now I'm on the wrong side of the door,
Swore to God I wouldn't knock no more.
You closed it soft, you closed it kind,
Left every piece of my heart behind.
Standing at yours.
Right back at the wrong side of the door.

I always swore
I don't reopen doors.
Funny how
I'm still standing here at yours.
I won't ask for what you cannot give,
I'll love you from here as long as I live.

Yeah, I'm on the wrong side of the door,
Swore to God I wouldn't knock no more.
You closed it soft, you closed it kind,
Left every piece of my heart behind.
Standing at yours.
No, I ain't knocking no more.
Just standing at the wrong side of your door.

Standing at yours.
Holding the line.
Still right here.
