Furniture - Answer The Door

Copied!

What crazy logic has come down
To steer me to this spot
I'm calm and waiting patiently
I don't know if I approve or not

Would have been much better
If we'd come this way together
Maybe we have somehow
Maybe we have somehow

Answer the door
I'm knocking let me in
Will we ever understand
What we might have been?

Down and tired and still in love
But it doesn't quite ring true
You were wild and good - you were perfection
What did I ever see in you?

What I rеally mean is
The good and bad between us
Bе the best we'll ever know
The best we'll ever know

Answer the door
I'm pounding to get in
Will you understand
What we might have been?
Or were we wasting our time?
I was wasting my time
Answer the door

I can't describe this mood at all
This exhilarating pain
Want to stay around - stay forever
And you never want to see me again

Meet all kinds of strangers
Make some great big fancy changes
Kiss too much, goodbye
You kiss too much, goodbye!

Answer the door
I'm anxious to get in
I've got clear inside my head
What we never would have been
What we never could have been
Oh-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Never would have been!

edit bio

Furniture is a British indie pop band that was formed in 1979 in London. The band was originally a quartet consisting of Jim Irvin (vocals, guitar), Tim Whelan (keyboards), Hamilton Lee (drums), and Maya Gilder (bass). They quickly gained a following in the London music scene with their melodic pop songs and catchy hooks.

Furniture released their debut single, "Why Are We In Love?" in 1981 and followed it up with their first album, "The Wrong People" in 1983. The album received critical acclaim and established the band as one of the leading acts in the UK indie music scene.

Over the years, Furniture went through several lineup changes and released a string of albums and singles that showcased their eclectic sound and songwriting skills. Their music was characterized by lush arrangements, poetic lyrics, and a blend of alternative rock, new wave, and post-punk influences.

Despite not achieving mainstream success, Furniture continued to be a cult favorite among music fans and critics. They disbanded in the late 1980s but reunited briefly in the early 2000s for a series of live shows and festival appearances.

Today, Furniture is remembered as one of the pioneering indie bands of the 1980s, with their music still cherished by fans of alternative pop and post-punk. Their influence can be heard in the music of contemporary indie bands, and their legacy continues to inspire new generations of musicians.
