A Thief at My Door

Elson Karen

The wind rattles my windowpane
He's trying to find a way in
But my door's locked shut 
and my curtains are drawn

There's a thief I can't let in.

A thief at my door
Steal away my love

I remember the wild roses 
and how they grew
Without fear for the world beyond the tree
But the tree's knocked down, 
and the roses were tamed
In my heart they are no longer free.

A thief at my door
Steal away my love
A thief at my door
Steal away my love

A thief at my door
Steal away my love
A thief at my door
Steal away my love

The Wind rattles my windowpane
He's trying to find a way in
But my door's locked shut 
and my curtains are drawn
There's a thief I can't let in
There's a thief I can't let in
There's a thief I can't let in
