Through the wire to your door
Through the wire
Through the wire to your door
To your door
I'm killing time until I see her
So many days but I don't care
I'm sleeping alone
Even the warm night's cold
But I gotta picture
And I'm always coming home
[Chorus]
Through the wire to your door
Through the wire
Through the wire to your door
I'm coming around
One's and zero's on the ground
I'll be a minute
Through the wire, I am down
[/Chorus]
Oh no, she's saving me a pillow
She couldn't tell a single lie
I'm coming around
I'm gonna be laying her down
Almost the real thing
Gets me close enough for now
[Chorus]
Through the wire to your door
Through the wire
Through the wire to your door
I wanna be there
One's and zero's in the air
A couple of seconds
Through the wire, and I'm there
[/Chorus]
I think of your face
Holding the keys to your place
There's nobody else
I'm lying awake by myself
And count the days
I creep your pictures on the train
Don't give it away
I'll do whatever it takes
[Chorus]
Through the wire to your door
Through the wire
Through the wire to your door
I'm coming around
One's and zero's on the ground
I'll be a minute
Through the wire, I am down
Through the wire to your door
(Through the wire)
Through the wire to your door
I'm coming around
One's and zero's on the ground
I'll be a minute
Through the wire to your door (to your door)
