[Verse] The elevator stops between the floors again A little red light blinks like it knows my name I keep one hand on the rail, one eye on the seam Something on the other side is counting with me [Chorus] Hold that door Let the dark come through Hold that door I got room for two [Verse] The street sweeper drags its silver teeth at dawn My shadow gets there first, then carries on A payphone rings inside the shuttered store I pick it up; the dial tone says, “Not yours” [Chorus] Hold that door Let the dark come through Hold that door I got room for two [Bridge] One step down Two lights gone Someone knows Which way I’m walking [Outro] The elevator opens on a wall of rain I step inside It says my name again
