verse 1
Many shoes have taken steps across the threshold
But no shoes were ever crowder than his
On the day he carried me across the threshold
And gave his brand new bride a wedding kiss.

verse 2
Now a hundred heartaches later at the threshold
All his love for me has vanished there's no doubt
And the lips that kissed me coming through the threshold
Stand there laughing now as I go walking out.

--- Instrumental Interlude ---

verse 3
I built my little world behind that threshold
I may not have made him happy but I tried
Still his eyes keep looking out across the threshold
For the happiness he thinks he left outside.

verse 4
Now, I'm standing all alone at the threshold
All his love for me has vanished there's no doubt
And the lips that kissed me coming through the threshold
Stand there laughing now as I go walking out.

I hear him laughing now as I go walking out...
This song is from the album "Connie Smith [1965]", "Miss Smith Goes To Nashville (2000)" and "Born To Sing (Bear Family (Germany))".
