Far across the avenue You know it's true that I want you But every time that I pass by I lose my cool and don't inquire Feelings that I had before But now at once try to ignore Why can't I be an officer And try but just a little more But do I even care at all You were an open door But time has passed and that's no more Why did you have to shut your door Before I could get inside I thought that we could go Out for a little bit don't you know Why did you have to shut your door Before I could get inside Caught me with a sideways glance Pretend that I'm not in a trance How could I go on and just keep walkin' by Busy, sure of course I was That doesn't solve the letter though Why can't I be an officer And try but just a little more But do I even care at all You were an open door But time has passed and that's no more Why did you have to shut your door Before I could get inside I thought that we could go Out for a little bit don't you know Why did you have to shut your door Before I could get inside And now you lead me along With a trail of bread crumbs It's killing me just because I know what I'll find at the other end of the wall You were an open door But time has passed and that's no more Why did you have to shut your door Before I could get inside I thought that we could go Out for a little bit don't you know Why did you have to shut your door Before I could get inside
