When the Lord Closes the Door (He Opens a Little Window)

(Kinky Friedman & Jeff Shelby)
When I find myself alone in my house and in my head
And I blow the candles out and I take myself to bed
And I¡¯m old enough to realize, ah, young enough to know
When the Lord closes the door, he opens a little window.
When sleep closes my eyes and sends me searching for you
And I¡¯m feelin¡¯ blue as the sky without your love to carry me through
And I¡¯m weak enough to be afraid but strong enough to let it show.
When the Lord closes the door, he opens a little window.
Baby I¡¯m a gypsy boy, I¡¯ll ride the night until
I come to you like moonlight through your raggle-taggle window sill.
When you find yourself alone in your house and in your head
And you blow the candles out and you take yourself to bed
And you¡¯re old enough to realize, ah, young enough to know
When the Lord closes the door, he opens a little window.
