Key in the Lock
4:04Ein Treppenhaus spät in der Nacht, der Regen noch auf den Mänteln, das Flurlicht springt aus. Ihre kalten Finger verfehlen das Schloss zweimal, seine Hand legt sich über ihre, und noch dreht keiner den Schlüssel. Das Album beginnt mit dem angehaltenen Atem vor einer Tür: Die ganze Nacht wartet dahinter, und das Warten gehört schon dazu.

The stairwell light clicks off again
Our coats still heavy with the rain
A thin line from the street below
Is all that's left to see you by
My fingers miss it once, then twice
And then your hand is there
Key in the lock
Your hand over mine
The whole night waiting behind the door
Turn it slow
Key in the lock
I hear you breathing close behind
The quiet of the sleeping house
I know what waits on the other side
I want to feel this moment too
My fingers miss it once, then twice
And then your hand is there
Key in the lock
Your hand over mine
The whole night waiting behind the door
Turn it slow
Key in the lock
Let me remember the dark on the stairs
The cold of the key and the warmth of your palm
Whatever comes after, this counts as well
The waiting is already us
Key in the lock
Your hand over mine
The whole night waiting behind the door
Turn it slow
Key in the lock
Turn it slow
