I´m a-walkin´ through the summer nights
The jukebox playing low
Yesterday everything was goin´ 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 standin´ in the doorway cryin´
I got nothing to go back to now.

The light in this place is so bad
Makin´ me sick in the head
All the laughter is just makin´ me sad
The stars have turned cherry red.

I´m strummin´ on my gay guitar
Smokin´ a cheap cigar
The ghost of our old love has not gone away
Don´t look it like it will any time soon
You left me standin´ in the doorway cryin´
Under the midnight moon.

Maybe they´ll get me, and maybe they won´t
But not tonight and it won´t be here
There are things I could say but I don´t
I know the mercy of God must be near.

I´ve been ridin´ the midnight train
Got ice water in my vein.

I would be crazy if I took you back
It would go up against every rule
You left me standin´ in the doorway cryin´
Sufferin´ like a fool.

When the last rays of daylight go down
Buddy you´re older or more
I can hear the church bells ringin´ in the yard
I wonder who they´re ringin´ for?

I know I can´t win
But my heart just won´t give in.

Last night I danced with a stranger
But she just reminded me you were the one.

You left me standin´ in the doorway cryin´
In the dark land of the sun.

I´ll eat when I´m hungry
Drink when I´m dry
And live my life on the square
And even if the flesh falls off of my face
I know someone will be there to care.

It always meaned so much, even the softest touch.

I see nothin´ to be gained by any explanation
There´s no words that need to be said
You left me standin´ in the doorway cryin´
Blues wrapped around my head.
