Letra da Música Standing In The Doorway de Bonnie Raitt

I'm walking through the summer nights
The jukebox playing low
Yesterday everything was going too fast
Today it's moving too slow.

I got no place left to turn
I got nothing left to burn

Don't know if I saw you
If I would kiss you or kill you
It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow
You left me standing in the doorway crying
I got nothing to go back to now.

Maybe they'll get me, maybe they won't
But not tonight, and it won't be here
There are things that I could say, but I don't
I know the mercy of god must be near
I've been riding the midnight train
I got ice water in my veins
I would be crazy if I took you back
It would go up against any rule
You left me standing in the doorway crying
Suffering like a fool.

When the last rays of daylight go down
Buddy, you're old no more
I can hear church bells ringing in the yard
I wonder who they're ringing for?

Oh, I know I can't win
But my heart, it just won't give in.

I see nothing to be gained by any explanation
There's no words that need to be said
You left me standing in the doorway crying
Blues wrapped around my head.
