Leave the Gate on the Latch

It would be a miracle A marvel of the modern age For her to come back now She coulda come a hundred ways Leave the gate on the latch Not wide open Not shut tight If she comes Don't make her knock there If she doesn't Let that lie Leave the gate on the latch Hope can wait without a sign I'm not sayin' I'm a man of faith But it's been known to be enough She could appear one day When it's convenient to her Love Leave the gate on the latch Not wide open Not shut tight If she comes Don't make her knock there If she doesn't Let that lie Leave the gate on the latch Hope can wait without a sign It would be a miracle But not impossible It could be some kind of joke To show up at the home Leave the gate on the latch Not wide open Not shut tight If she comes Don't make her knock there If she doesn't Let that lie Leave the gate on the latch Hope can wait without a sign
