Behind the Door Songtext

von Graham Gouldman

Behind the door
Of every house
In every street
In every town
A story is unfolding
A story is unfolding
Of love and hate
Remorse, love's fate
Of hopes and fears
And smiles and tears
Of dreams that lie emoldering

Behind the door
Of every house
In every street
In every town
The stage is set for playing
The stage is set for playing
And add tough crime
A pantomime
A sweet romance
A ritual dance
The characters are praying

Behind the door
Of every house
In every street
In every town
The people are awaiting
The people are awaiting
To bear and die
The years go by
The wedding spree
The funeral tea
And still they go on waiting

And to the one
The only one
Remembered when
The need of men
It's great again

The passing cop?
A sand in?
Propelled with love
To the one above
Asking for
Asking for
Asking for
Asking for
A happy ending
A happy ending
