Behind The Door



Behind the door of every house

In every street, in every town

A story is unfoldin'

A story is unfoldin' of love and hate

The morseless wait of hopes and fears

Of smiles and tears of dreams

That lie a moldering



Behind the door of every house

In every street, in every town

The stage is set for playin'

The stage is set for playin'

And I call crime a pantomime

Sweet romance, a ritual dance

The characters are playin'



Behind the door of every house

In every street, in every town

The people are a waitin'

The people are a waitin'

To bare and die, the years go by

The wedding spree, the funeral teaBR> And still they go on mating



And to the one the only one

Remember when the need of man

Is greater again

The prayers take off ascending

Of bountful love to the one above

Asking for, asking for, asking for, asking for

A happy ending, a happy ending, a happy ending

Yeah
