"Every Heart is a Doorway" lyrics by Benjamin Newman adapted from and ttto: "Crossing the Water" by Bill Staines / C - FG C / F C Dm G / 1st / F C G C / We are crossing the threshold where're we roam We are seeking a passage that will take us home Every heart is a doorway, every wish is a key That unlocks the way to where we're meant to be /: G - C - / F C Dm G :/ Some children find the doors that lead to worlds beyond our own Those ways have closed behind us, but we know we're not alone Yet with every breath within us, we search forever more To find some other key to fit that long-lost door We are crossing the threshold where're we roam... For some it is a glory, for some it is a game For some it is a story filled with emptiness and pain But for one chance of returning, think of the rules you'd bend Would you justify, would you tell a lie, would you kill a friend? We are crossing the threshold where're we roam... This school became our refuge, when each of us was lost And we all want to go home again, but not at any cost Now to catch the wolf among us will take all our wits and skill Can you taste your death, can you hold your breath, can you stand quite still? We are crossing the threshold where're we roam... Oh, there is no other journey that will ever be the same, No second chance horizon that will call you by your name. As your heart cries out with longing to reach that distant land Let your spirit yearn and the knob will turn underneath your hand We are crossing the threshold where're we roam...
