Gone Before the Door Closed
Style: Bluegrass romp

[Verse 1]
You left your socks upon the step
Running out before the door swung shut
Half of you always halfway gone
Chasing something past the cut

[Pre-chorus]
We keep the porch light burning on
We keep on counting every gust
Waiting for the sound of you

[Chorus]
August, you're a whirlwind, love
Kicking up the honest dust
Nobody else could fill a room
The way you do, the way we trust

[Verse 2]
You never sit still long enough
To let the coffee lose its heat
Always up and halfway out
Socks still warm upon the seat

[Pre-chorus]
We keep the porch light burning on
We keep on counting every gust
Waiting for the sound of you

[Chorus]
August, you're a whirlwind, love
Kicking up the honest dust
Nobody else could fill a room
The way you do, the way we trust

[Bridge]
Blow in loud and leave in a rush
We'll take you either way
Steady hands or storm and hush
You're the one we'd never trade

[Chorus]
August, you're a whirlwind, love
Kicking up the honest dust
Nobody else could fill a room
The way you do, the way we trust

[Outro]
Leave your socks upon our step
We'll keep them warm till you're home
