You`re out breaking new ground on the wrong side of town
But you cried and your conscience once more will get you down
Like an overgrown puppy with a sheep killing wind
You`ll come knocking on my backdoor and once I`ll let you in
Once more I`ll let you in and once more I`ll forgive
Cause life of pretend is the kind of life we live
When you say I love you I start living again
So knock on my backdoor once more I`ll let you in
[ steel ]
I know I`ll cry tomorrow but at least I smile today
You`ll love me just enough so I won`t stray while you`re away
I`ll just keep on waitin` for the love that I can`t win
So knock on my backdoor once more I`ll let you in
Once more I`ll let you in...
So knock on my backdoor once more I`ll let you in
