One Door Opens

One door opens, another shuts behind
One sun sets and another sun, she rises
Love comes to you in old familiar ways
And love comes to you in shadows and disguises
She may quit you and she may forsake you
Drift away like a phantom in a fever
Who walks into your heart of solitude
Who walks into the den of the deceiver
Will they say it was my time
Will they say I had it coming
Will they say it's what you earned
For living through a lie
If I could have my way
I'd leave it all tomorrow
There's sorrow if I stay
I've better fish to fry
One door opens, another shuts behind
One sun sets and another sun, she rises
Love comes to you in old familiar ways
And love comes to you in shadows and disguises
Love may break like a precious string of pearls
Treasured moments, they roll away and scatter
Make believe that there's ice runs through my veins
Shrug my shoulders to say it doesn't matter
Will they say it was my time
Will they say I had it coming
Will they say it's what you earned
For living through a lie
If I could have my way
I'd leave it all tomorrow
There's sorrow if I stay
I've better fish to fry
One door opens, another shuts behind
One sun sets and another sun, she rises
Love comes to you in old familiar ways
Love comes to you in shadows and disguises
