The House With Two Front Doors Lyrics

I'll sing you a song

How it might be to live in one house

With two different homes

Each of us unlock front doors of our own

Leading our two lives

In symmetry



The street has billowing trees on both sides

And our house



In the house with the two front doors

We exist side by side



Mornings, we wake from our own separate rooms

Each looking out on the same bright day

A bird perched on your sill

Singing his song

Will soon fly to my sill

And we'll sing along



Into the kitchen we fill up our cups

At the same time with

Our drippy faucets



Won't it be grand to know that

Someone else is stirring their tea?



In the house with the two front doors

We exist side by side



A game of checkers where nobody wins

Two separate games of solitaire

You on the front porch

And I on a swing

In this way, we live

So happily



Saying hello as we gather our mail

Going indoors

And smiling alone



What friendly neighbors we will prove to be

In our house



In the house with the two front doors

We exist side by side



The seasons pass and the trees lose their leaves

But our house, looking still and bright



Warming our fingers by the same stove

But you on your end and I on mine



Stepping outside and

Both wondering when

When will it ever be springtime

Ever again?



The streets are lined with piles of shining snow

Each of us walks through the cold



Into the house with the two front doors

We exist side by side



I do not know where this house is

The humble place to live with two front doors

The house with two front doors

The house with two front doors
