A Door of Ash and Alder
[Verse 1]
Behind a door of ash and alder
Are you waiting for me still?
Here at the very edge of ages
I’ll wait forever if you will
[Chorus]
I still see you at the threshold
Your fingers traced the wood grain through the dust
(And now I trace it for you.)
I speak to you as if you hear me
Somewhere on the wrong side of the worlds
(Where all the stars change places.)
[Verse 2]
Were you afraid of what we’d find there?
Behind the universe’s walls?
If I had hoped that you would falter
If I was scared, was that so wrong?
[Chorus]
I still see you at the threshold
Your fingers traced the wood grain through the dust
(And now I trace it for you.)
I speak to you as if you hear me
Somewhere on the wrong side of the worlds
(Where all the stars change places.)
