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
