Lyrics
Chorus
The door is open
the door is open
I don't have to knock on anything
I only have to walk
The light is on the other side
and it has been all along
The door is open
so I'm going, and I'm gone
Verse 1
There's a hallway in the morning
and it's darker than the room
But the shape at the far end of it
is a doorway, not a tomb
And I've stood here in my socks before
and talked myself around
Today I take the seven steps
and the seven make a sound
Pre-Chorus
Not tomorrow, not in April
now, in shoes, today
Chorus
The door is open
the door is open
I don't have to knock on anything
I only have to walk
The light is on the other side
and it has been all along
The door is open
so I'm going, and I'm gone
Verse 2
Nobody is coming down the hall to turn the handle
Nobody is waiting with permission and a candle
The handle's always been there
and it always turns the same
And the man who says it's locked
is the only one to blame
Pre-Chorus
Not tomorrow, not in April
now, in shoes, today
Bridge
Seven steps to daylight
that's the whole of it
Seven steps and one decision
and the dark hall's lit
I have done much harder things
than crossing my own floor
So I say it in the morning
and I say it at the door
Chorus
The door is open
the door is open
I don't have to knock on anything
I only have to walk
The light is on the other side
and it has been all along
The door is open
so I'm going, and I'm gone
