As you leave
Please tip toe down the backstairs of my life
Down the backstairs of my life
And everything is all you ever meant and said to me
Everything you mean to me
Could you live
With all the hurt and the pain and the tears again
Yesterday could be a song for the years refrain
They confess on me I've given all I've been I'm poor
Oh I've been poured out
And as you leave
Please tip toe down the backstairs of my life
Down the backstairs of my life
When you leave
You're taking all my dreams outside my door
Twisted heart is crying more and more and more
In the darkness now all I can see is where we've been
Oh where we've been
As you leave
Please tip toe down the backstairs of my life
Down the backstairs of my life
Down the backstairs of my life
Down the backstairs of my life
Back door of my life
