Moxy Fruvous - On Her Doorstep lyrics

(Mike on lead)

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

(All)

I'm not there at all

Though I shall recall

What she said to me

On her doorstep

(Mike)

She likes my dad, he knows Gordy Howe

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

[The following two lines are in the song,

But do not appear in the liner notes]

Watch me explode as we misunderstand

Everything that's said on this fiber optic strand

(All)

I'm not here at all

Thoug I shall recall

What she said to me

On her doorstep

(All)

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

(Mike)

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

(All)

I'm not there at all

But I will recall

What she said to me

On her doorstep
