Text: Kinky Friedman. When The Lord Closes The Door.

(kinky friedman & jeff shelby)

When I find myself alone in my house and in my head
And I blow the candles out and I take myself to bed
And I'm old enough to realize, ah, young enough to know
When the lord closes the door, he opens a little window.
When sleep closes my eyes and sends me searching for you
And I'm feelin' blue as the sky without your love to carry me through
And I'm weak enough to be afraid but strong enough to let it show.
When the lord closes the door, he opens a little window.


Baby I'm a gypsy boy, I'll ride the night until
I come to you like moonlight through your raggle-taggle window sill.

When you find yourself alone in your house and in your head
And you blow the candles out and you take yourself to bed
And you're old enough to realize, ah, young enough to know
When the lord closes the door, he opens a little window.
