The Backdoor Lyrics by Alenei

2023

[Intro]
My, my
Before you turn around just tell why

[Verse 1]
There are a million people in this new town
Fate spins me around to run into your arms again
And I dreamed of it, dreamed of it
The song stuck in your head says
Please, go on ahead
While we’re on that bridge, and my heart might slip

[Pre-Chorus]
The coffee’s cold
And forgotten
We were talking by the counter
Now you’re back with her
Will I ever learn?

[Chorus]
My, my
Before you turn around just tell why
My, my
Is there any love in your goodbye
And nothing’s good
You misunderstood
Me to be the waiting by the Backdoor
It is your fault

[Verse 2]
Your cigarillo lit beneath the dark sky
Only you and I sitting by the
Thames at night
I felt alive, I felt so alive
You told me you’re a mess
But you never confessed
How when you go home, you won’t be alone

[Pre-Chorus]
The coffee’s cold
And forgotten
We were talking by the counter
Now you’re back with her
Will I ever learn?

[Chorus]
My, my
Before you turn around just tell why
My, my
Is there any love in your goodbye
And nothing’s good
You misunderstood
Me to be the waiting by the Backdoor
It is your fault

[Bridge]
Lost alone in this city all I see is you
The dullness in blue eyes
They once were filled with stars
You stole them all to lighten your dark sky
Now our faults found
Their way home inside your lies
They crossed those lovers just to see me cry

[Chorus]
My, my
Before you turn around just tell why
My, my
Is there any love in your goodbye
And nothing’s good
You misunderstood
Me to be the waiting by the Backdoor
It is your fault
