Kansas Back Door Lyrics

Back Door Lyrics

As I look out in the night 

    and count the stars all shining bright

I
wonder where I am and where I'm going

Sometimes I think I've lived before


    I seem to see beyond a door

But it's just a crazy notion I leave
showing

I live my life as sensitive as possible then one day

Maybe I'll
wake up young again 

    with feelings of a new day

But what we feel I
know we'll, miss 

    and someday I'll look back at this

And  know by
then the life that we were meant for... but are you leaving

Leaving my back
door



You want the world to give you some 

    you fight a war
that's never won and you

Come back scarred 'caus you've seen who's really
dying

You reach a point where nothing lasts 

    you play a part that
someone casts you into

Now their machines keep right on lying

I want
the world to be a place where no one comes to suffer

Just give the pain an
empty place 

    away from one another

Let's seal our words with a kiss


    'cause someday we'll look back at this

We'll know by then the life
that we were meant for... but are you leaving

Leaving by my back door
