Don't close the door Don't close the door Don't close the door Don't close the door Don't close the door to my heart Don't close the door to my love When she left she packed light No luggage allowed on the red eye flight I wonder what she had for her free drink I hope she got a pillow Don't close the door I hope that someone meets her at the gate I hope that they're there on time And they can skip baggage check Beautiful Don't close the door Don't close the door to my heart Don't close the door to my love She went up she couldn't go west The ocean held (her) in like a breast By a brassiere of broken land I can still see her Don't close the door Now I've no need for a peephole For I can see clearly now No sacred cow I miss you I can't close the door You went through I can't close the door To my heart I can't close the door To my love
