Behind the Door lyrics

Behind the door of every house,

In every street, in every town

A story is unfolding...

A story is unfolding

Of love and hate,

Remorseless fate;

Of hopes and fears,

Of smiles and tears...

Of dreams that lie a-mouldering!

Behind the door of every house,

In every street, in every town

The stage is set for playing...

The stage is set for playing

An act of crime,

A pantomime;

Sweet romance,

A ritual dance...

The characters are praying!

Behind the door of every house,

In every street, in every town

The people are awaiting...

The people are awaiting

To bear and die,

The years go by...

The wedding spree

The funeral tea...

And still they go on mating!

And to the one,

The only one:

Remember when

The need of man

Is great again!

The prayers take off

Ascending,

All filled of love

To the One above

Asking for...

Asking for...

Asking for...

Asking for a happy ending!

A happy ending...

A happy ending...

Yeah!
