My Door Is Open

you knew the story when we very first met

i look at you and see what i cannot forget

pour out another and i'll light a cigarette

open that wrap and we'll be friends again yet

my door is open you can come when you like

my door is open you can stay here all night

but promises i make for your consideration

you take your chances with a one night stand

it passes time although the conversation's bland

if you use your friends

and then their friends too

in the end the only one who's really used is you

my door is open you can come when you like

my door is open you can stay here all night

open your world and the duplicity of you

and you will find you've got the sympathy of few

so settle in and find the stories that you tell

will wrap you up inside the nightmares

that you dwell

my door is open you can come when you like

my door is open you can stay here all night

my invitation is for your deliberation

please don't condem me because of my situation

i know you've spoken and you hate reiteration

but promises i make for your consideration

my door is open
