On Her Doorstep Lyrics - Moxy Fruvous

I started out a little tightly wound 

Like a rocket shot up out of frozen ground 

Dirt in my nails, a forest in my head 

Seems like every message I got said 

Burn it - Break it 

She took me in like a broken bird 

In a moonlit house in a single word 

We built a cave (or was it a nest?) 

She did all the driving and all the rest, but 

I'm not there at all 

Though I shall recall 

What she said to me 

On her doorstep 

She likes my dad, he knows Gordy Howe 

He had such a temper- guess who's got it now 

Watch me explode as we misunderstand 

Everything that's said on this fiber optic strand 

I'm not here at all 

Thoug I shall recall 

What she said to me 

On her doorstep 

When I get back we'll dip our cup 

Into the fountain of youth 

We'll rest our heads and raise a toast 

To the sunset's beautiful truth 

I lit a fire by the tracks last night 

Bounced it off the moon 

Hoping you'd call soon 

To this phonebook state 

Where I've been stuck up late 

Felt just like an ass when I broke that glass 

I'm not there at all 

But I will recall 

What she said to me 

On her doorstep
