Bob Dylan’s song that exposes his soul, exhibits the nude feelings of pain and disappointment that a certain girl gave to the singer. The clip playing here is just darkness so only music is of great importance here. It starts as the long rock playing on a guitar. Then close to 100th second, his voice starts. His voice in this particular singing is almost indistinguishable, while the essence is gloomy and sad – a girl left him crying, she broke up, she is over him, and now he wanders the streets, lives his life in a square box & smokes a cheap cigarette. He does things in life not forgetting this girl. Reference: 'Standing In The Doorway' on The Official Bob Dylan Site

Standing in the Doorway Song Lyrics

I'm walkin' through the summer nights

The jukebox playing low

Yesterday everything was goin' too fast

Today it's movin' too slow

I got no place left to turn

I got nothin' left to burn

Don't know if I saw you if I would kiss you or kill you

It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow

You left me standing in the doorway cryin'

I got nothin' to go back to now

The light in this place is so bad

Makin' me sick in the head

All the laughter is just makin' me sad

The stars have turned cherry red

I'm strummin' on my gay guitar

Smokin' a cheap cigar

The ghost of our old love has not gone away

Don't look it like it will anytime soon

You left me standin' in the doorway cryin'

Under the midnight moon

Maybe they'll get me and maybe they won't

But not tonight and it won't be here

There are things I could say, but I don't

I know the mercy of God must be near

I been ridin a midnight train

Got ice water in my veins

I would be crazy if I took you back

It would go up against every rule

You left me standin' in the doorway cryin'

Sufferin' like a fool

When the last rays of daylight go down

Buddy, you're old no more

I can hear the church bells ringin' in the yard

I wonder who they're ringin' for?

I know I can't win

But my heart just won't give in

Last night I danced with a stranger

But she just reminded me you were the one

You left me standin' in the doorway cryin'

In the dark land of the sun

I eat when I'm hungry, drink when I'm dry

And live my life on the square

And even if the flesh falls off of my face

I know someone will be there to care

It always means so much

Even the softest touch

I see nothing to be gained by any explanation

There's no words that need to be said

You left me standin' in the doorway cryin'

Blues wrapped around my head
