the red door

I left the light on for you
Left the same paint color in your room
The same flowers grow in the front yard
I remember when you climbed the trees in our yard

Lemon trees climbed with me
Swimming pool, jump count on two
Bunk bed, bumped your head
Hardwood floors, the red door

I waited for you
After everything we've been through
Our memories sit at the bottom of the pool
Left behind kingdoms that we ruled
Side by side you and I waited for you

I still remember the harmony
Of the songs you used to sing to me (sing to me)
You left your sweater in the closet
I thought the pink one was your favorite

Lemontrees, left with me
No more jewels at the bottom of the pool
This bunk bed, meant nothing
Old floors, new paint on the door

I waited for you
After everything we've been through
Our memories sit at the bottom of the pool
Left behind kingdoms that we ruled
Side by side you and I waited for you

You recognized me even with my new color
Oh your eyes, you look so much like your mother
Brought someone new, who's just like you, just like you
Old friend all this time
In all the faces do you remember mine
You have changed and so have I
Won't you please come inside

I waited for you
After everything we've been through
I still waited for you
