This is the back door to my heart Oh, but don't you tell a soul That I've given you the key To these rooms inside of me Don't you let nobody know
This is the color of my pain Dusty blue of midnight rain I might be askin' for too much Hopin' somehow with your touch You could make these colors fade
The end of the world might be just around the corner Might be knockin' at my door This could all be gone by mornin' If you'd only step inside me, take a candle to the dark This is the back door to my heart
See these lines on my face From too lang standin' in the wind A testament to my mistakes Choices that I've made I won't tell you where I've been
The end of the world might be just around the corner Might be knockin' at my door This could all be gone by mornin' If you'd only step inside me, take a candle to the dark This is the back door to my heart This is the back door to my heart
