There's a note underneath your front door That I wrote twenty years ago Yellow paper and a faded picture And a secret, in an envelope There's no reasons No excuses There's no secondhand alibis Just some black ink, on some blue lines And a shadow, you won't recognize And if it means I'll be waiting twenty years And twenty more I'll be praying for redemption And your note, underneath my door And your note underneath my door

20 Years by The Civil Wars
There's a note underneath your front door That I wrote twenty years ago Yellow paper and a faded picture And a secret, in an envelope There's no reasons No excuses There's no secondhand alibis Just some black ink, on some blue lines And a shadow, you won't recognize And if it means I'll be waiting twenty years And twenty more I'll be praying for redemption And your note, underneath my door And your note underneath my door
To the man of my dreams, It has been more than a decade and you probably have no idea that I have been waiting for you. Our paths may not cross but I will continue to wait even if it means that I have to wait until my next life. For now, I cannot really do anything but pray and hope that I am right. That you and I are meant for each other.
