A desperate lover knocks, pleading for entry into the heart that once welcomed him, only to be met with rejection like a beggar turned away by the tide. Yet, in a profound twist, the one who refuses is also the one who longs to be let in, revealing love as both the wound and the cure.

Lyrics
I Come to Your Door
Copyright © 2006 David Baumgarten
BPM 89 Key: E major
[Verse 1]
I come to your door, Won't you give me the time?
You say, "There's no room here, For us two to be so near."
"But I love you, it's me, Won't you let me inside?
And you turn me away,
Like a beggar that's peddlin' the tide.
[Verse 2]
I stay in a war, Payin' dues for my crime.
"Won't my love conquer your fear? Isn't all that I want clear?"
Though I beg and I plead, You dismiss me and hide.
Take a seat by the tree,
'Til you bury your fear and your pride.
[Verse 3]
I knock on your door, And you ask, "Who is there?"
It is you who stands out here,
It is you who is so near.
It is you, it is love,
And there is no divide.
And the door opens wide,
To a time where the stars collide.
[Outro]
I come to your door.
I come to your door.
