Edie's Song
As she closes
the door
another stranger
amiss
but then
the sky
lights up
and clears away the mists
people are crowding around
all trying to hear the sound
leaving me out in the rain
but when she closed
the door
she never had to see the day again
the night didn't
go on
but her voice kept ringing our minds
but she closed
the door
and never saw the day again
