TRUST YOUR DOORS LYRICS
When you don’t know
You don’t know
When you can't move
You can’t move
You get all moonstuck
Unraveled from your loom
You get all
Moonstuck
Here’s a path there
There's a path here
But is the math fair
To make your wrath clear
Trust your windows
Trust your doors
And you can’t play at this fair
When you pair away your share
Because your there is just a
Sometime
Somewhere
Trust your windows
Trust your doors
Trust your windows
But trust your doors
A little more
And it shines so light
With just a little bright
So you tread your dread
There’s a smash ahead
Trust your windows
Trust your doors
Trust your windows
But trust your doors
A little more
No course laid in
Don’t get all moonstuck
Just spin
And it shines so light
With just a little bright
So you tread your dread
There’s a smash ahead
Trust your windows
Trust your doors
Trust your windows
But trust your doors
A little more
A little more
A little more
A little more
Bye bye Ben
Night night Nate
By the way Babs
See you at the gate
Trust your windows
Trust your doors
Trust your windows
But trust your doors
A little more
