Darken My Door

Moon against the window
Moonlight on the lawn
The street's so bright
With the streelights on

What do they think the night is for?
Darken my door
Darken my door

Stars against the window
Starlight on the lawn
The street's so bright
When them stars come on

What do they think the night is for?
Darken my door
Darken my door

All that light lets lonely shine so clear
Tonight my head is a chandelier
We will toast your past
Just as overcast as mine

A crush of hearts
For the dark red wine

City in the window
Searchlight on the lawn
The street's so bright
When the search is on

What do they think the night is for?
Darken my door
Darken my door

I know to never advertise a hurt
But tonight my eyes are fireworks
Wear your heavy braids
Strands of shadow, shade, and vine

Let them down
Make the darkness shine
(Make it shine!)

That sunrise through the window
Sunrise on the lawn
Your face so bright in the breaking dawn
Must be what the light is for

Open the door
Open my door
