Backdoor to Heaven |
My eyes are stuck on sleepless dreams |
This world is never what it seems |
We’ve sold it short it’s what were taught |
Lost it in the living |
Allegiance is the strangest thing |
It’s grown too fast, grown some wings |
It’s flown away, flown away |
The back door to heaven is open wide to me |
So when I’m wrapped up tight in a hell of the night |
Can I still decide to be where the mad road goes |
'Neath the shapeless glow |
Or will we swop ourselves like children |
For the value of our innocence |
A gentleman’s a golden card and a red, red rose |
Transformed by some strange alchemy |
You stand apart and point to me |
And point to something I can’t see |
And it’s a lousy rainbow anyway |
Allegiance is the strangest thing |
It’s grown too fast, grown some wings |
It’s flown away, flown away |
The back door to heaven is open wide to me |
So when I’m wrapped up tight in a hell of the night |
Can I still decide to be where the mad road goes |
'Neath the shapeless glow |
Or will we swop ourselves like children |
For the value of our innocence |
A gentleman’s a golden card and a red, red rose |
Your cheating heart will choose a way |
To borrow, burn and throw away |
Tomorrow same as yesterday |
It’s a lousy rainbow anyway |
The back door to heaven is open wide to me |
So when I’m wrapped up tight in a hell of the night |
Can I still decide to be where the mad road goes |
'Neath the shapeless glow |
Or will we swop ourselves like children |
For the value of our innocence |
A gentleman’s a golden card and a red, red rose |
