lyrics

DOORBELL RINGS

Five o'clock running home,
Bolting the door, taking off the phone,
Pull the drapes shut , find a place to hide,
Sit still use my inside eyes.

Desk full of books scattered everywhere,
Answers to questions don't seem to appear,
Too busy thinking to feel what's inside,
Need a spirit guide, a spirit guide.

The doorbell rings, the baby cries,
Too busy working, to wonder why.
Long-distance calls, friends drop in,
No time to look within.

Not very good at saying no,
Turning my back, closing the door,
Saying yes all the time, isn't good for the soul,
Need boundaries, boundaries.

Seven billion people in the world today,
Laughing and loving in their own special way,
Everyone wants a place to call home,
A safe place to lay their head.
