Lyrics Civil Twilight

Civil Twilight

Doorway

Cold lips, cold hands,

Cold feet on the street

There's no shelter from

The heart's beat

Faster and faster,

The winds blow down from the north,

Sweeping these streets

Like ghosts on a march to war

A march to war

Outside, there's a silhouette,

Changing her name,

Changing her face

Every time I look away

We sway in the yellow light

With no more strength to fight

So many dreams that fade away,

So many lives we just can't save

If you wanted this so bad,

Then why do we stand like we do

In the doorway?

Come in, come in,

Come in, come in,

Come in, come in

Come in,

I never wanted anything like I want you

Come in,

I never wanted anything like I want you

Like I want you...

So many dreams that fade away,

So many lives we just can't save

If we wanted this so bad,

Then why do we stand like we do

In the doorway

If this is it, then why do I wait?

All tangled up in the strings of fate

If I wanted this so bad,

Then why do I stand like I do?

Come in, come in, come in,

Come in, come in, come in,

Come in, come in, come in,

Come in, come in, come in
