Lyrics of 20 Years by The Civil Wars
verse
There's a note underneath your front door
That I wrote 20 years ago
Yellow paper and a faded picture
And a secret in an envelope
verse
There's no reasons, no excuses
There's no second-hand alibis
Just some black ink on some blue lines
And a shadow you won't recognize
verse
In the meantime, I'll be waiting
For 20 years, 20 more
I'll be praying for redemption
And your note underneath my door
And your note underneath my door
Writer(s): John Paul White, Joy Elizabeth Williams
