Description
Lyrics written by a lady friend from years ago. Original title of her poem was "Through the Bathroom Door", I don't know who she identified with, the mother with a drug addiction or the daughter who discovers her mother is addicted to drugs. Miss Young was an alcoholic in life and had no children so I think she might identify with the young girl in her poem as maybe her mother was a drug addict and maybe that's why she drank due to emotional turmoil of a bad relationship with her mother.
