The door is closed on the past
We cannot enter and see
Who once lived inside this room.
There remains no memory.
Who turned this china knob?
Who opened this inner doorway?
Who opened this inner doorway?
Who dreamed a dream behind this door?
Who wished for a better day?
Who hoped for a future bright inside?
Who painted brickwork gray?
Who left and never again came back?
Who gave up and walked away?
Who gave up and walked away?
The door is closed on the past
We cannot enter and see
Who once lived inside this room;
That remains a mystery.
What’s Good About Home!
