"The Doors"
Lyrics
You know the day destroys the
night
Night divides the day
Tried to run
Tried to hide
Break on
through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on
through to the other side
We chased our pleasures here
Dug our
treasures there
But can you still recall
The time we cried
Break on
through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on
through to the other side
Everybody loves my baby
Everybody loves my
baby
She gets, she gets
She gets, she gets
I found an island in
your arms
A country in your eyes
Arms that chain us
Eyes that
lied
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other
side
Break on through to the other side
Made the scene from week to
week
Day to day, hour to hour
The gate is straight
Deep and wide
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on through, break on through
Break on through, break on through
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Yeah, yeah,
yeah, . . .
Well, the clock says it's time to
close now
I guess I'd better go now
I'd really like to stay here all
night
The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes
Street lights share
their hollow glow
Your brain seems bruised with numb surprise
Still
one place to go
Still one place to go
Let me sleep all night in your
soul kitchen
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
Turn me out and I'll
wander, baby
Stumbling in the neon groves
Your fingers weave quick
minarets
Speak in secret alphabets
I light another cigarette
Learn to
forget, learn to forget
Learn to forget, learn to forget
Let me sleep
all night in your soul kitchen
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
Turn me
out and I'll wander, baby
Stumbling in the neon groves
Well the clock
says it's time to close now
I know I have to go now
I really want to stay
here all night
All night
All night
Before you slip into
unconsciousness
I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at
bliss
Another kiss
Another kiss
The days are bright and filled with
pain
Enclose me in your gentle rain
The time you ran was too
insane
We'll meet again
We'll meet again
Oh tell me where your
freedom lies
The streets are fields that never die
Deliver me from reasons
why
You'd rather cry
I'd rather fly
The crystal ship is being
filled
A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
A million ways to spend your
time
When we get back
I'll drop a line
Well, she's fashionably lean
And
she's fashionably late
She'll never rank a scene
She'll never break a
date
But she's no drag
Just watch the way she walks
She's a
twentieth century fox
She's a twentieth century fox
No tears, no
fears
No ruined years
No clocks
She's a twentieth century
fox
She's the queen of cool
And she's the lady who waits
Since her
mind left school
It never hesitates
She won't waste time
On elementary
talk
'Cause she's a twentieth century fox
She's a twentieth century
fox
Got the world locked up
Inside a plastic box
She's a twentieth
century fox, oh yeah
Twentieth century fox, oh yeah
Twentieth century
fox
She's a twentieth century fox
Well, show me the way
To the next
whiskey bar
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why
Show me the
way
To the next whiskey bar
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask
why
For if we don't find
The next whiskey bar
I tell you we must
die
I tell you we must die
I tell you, I tell you
I tell you we must
die
Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say goodbye
We've lost our good
old mama
And must have whiskey, oh, you know why
Oh, moon of
Alabama
We now must say good-bye
We've lost our good old mama
And must
have whiskey, oh, you know why
Well, show me the way
To the next
little girl
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why
Show me the
way
To the next little girl
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask
why
For if we don't find
The next little girl
I tell you we must
die
I tell you we must die
I tell you, I tell you
I tell you we must
die
Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say goodbye
We've lost our good
old mama
And must have whiskey, oh, you know why
You know that it would be
untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we
couldn't get much higher
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby,
light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
The time to hesitate is
through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our
love become a funeral pyre
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby,
light my fire
Try to set the night on fire, yeah
The time to hesitate
is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And
our love become a funeral pyre
Come on baby, light my fire
Come on
baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
You know that it
would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to
you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on baby, light my
fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try
to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night
on fire
Whoa, yeah!

'Cause I'm a back door man

Eat your pork and beans

'Cause it's too

Too late, too late
Too late, too late
And we're on our

Yeah, we're on our way
And we can't turn back
I walked with you

No, we can't turn back
Yeah, we're on

And we can't turn back
'Cause it's too late
Too late, too

And we're on our way
No, we can't turn
back
Yeah, we're on our way
And we can't turn back
'Cause it's too
late
Too late, too late
Too late, too late
Take the highway to the end of the
night
End of the night
End of the night
Take a journey to the bright
midnight
End of the night
End of the night
Realms of
bliss
Realms of light
Some are born to sweet delight
Some are born to
sweet delight
Some are born to the endless night
End of the
night
End of the night
End of the night
End of the night
Realms
of bliss
Realms of light
Some are born to sweet delight
Some are born
to sweet delight
Some are born to the endless night
End of the
night
End of the night
End of the night
End of the night
Time to live
Time to lie
Time to
laugh
Time to die
Take it easy, baby
Take it as it comes
Don't
move too fast if you want your love to last
You've been movin' much too
fast
Time to walk
Time to run
Time to aim your arrows
At the
sun
Take it easy, baby
Take it as it comes
Don't move too fast if
you want your love to last
You've been movin' much too fast
Go real
slow
You like it more and more
Take it as it comes
Specialize in havin'
fun
Take it easy, baby
Take it as it comes
Don't move too fast if
you want your love to last
You've been movin' much too fast
Movin' much
too fast
Movin' much too fast
This is the end, beautiful
friend
This is the end, my only friend
The end of our elaborate
plans
The end of everything that stands
The end
No safety or
surprise
The end
I'll never look into your eyes again
Can you
picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need of some
stranger's hand
In a desperate land
Lost in a Roman wilderness of
pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are
insane
Waiting for the summer rain
There's danger on the edge of
town
Ride the King's highway
Weird scenes inside the gold mine
Ride the
highway West, baby
Ride the snake
Ride the snake
To the lake
To
the lake
The ancient lake, baby
The snake is long
Seven
miles
Ride the snake
He's old
And his skin is cold
The West is
the best
The West is the best
Get here and we'll do the rest
The
blue bus is calling us
The blue bus is calling us
Driver, where are you
taking us?
The killer awoke before dawn
He put his boots on
He took
a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went
into the room where his sister lived
And then he paid a visit to his
brother
And then he walked on down the hall
And he came to a door
And
he looked inside
Father
Yes son?
I want to kill you
Mother, I want
to. . .
C'mon baby, take a chance with us
C'mon baby, take a chance
with us
C'mon baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the
blue bus
This is the end, beautiful friend
This is the end, my only
friend
The end
It hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow
me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to
die
This is the end
