the back door to heaven þarký sözü

words and music by roddy frame
my eyes are stuck on sleepless dreams,
this world is never what it seems,
we´ve sold it short it´s what we´re taught,
lost it in the living.
allegiance is the strangest thing,
it´s grown too fast, grown some wings,
it´s flown away, flown away

chorus:
the back door to heaven, is open wide to me,
so when i´m wrapped up tight in a hell of the night,
can i still decide to be,
where the mad road goes, ´neath the shapeless glow,
or will we swop ourselves like children
for the value of our innocence,
a gentleman´s a golden card and a red, red rose.

transformed by some strange alchemy,
you stand apart and point to me
and point to something i can´t see,
and it´s a lousy rainbow anyway.
allegiance is the strangest thing,
it´s grown too fast, grown some wings,
it´s flown away, flown away

chorus

your cheating heart will choose a way,
to borrow, burn and throw away.
tomorrow same as yesterday.
it´s a lousy rainbow anyway.

chorus
