Back door man

tonight i’ll be your back door man
i’ll be eating right out of your hand
we’re made for each other like ostrich and sand
tonight i’ll be your back door man

i’m waving my family goodbye
they’re gone in the blink of an eye
all of your good time companions say ‘hi’
i’m waving my family goodbye

the ghost of my future’s returned
to reveal all the bridges he’s burned
and to gloat at the wishes he’s seen overturned
the ghost of my future’s returned

i’m taking my chances tonight
as my guardian angel takes flight
i’m lost in the dark and she promised me light
i’m taking my chances tonight

i’m hanging around your back door
cos i’ve nothing to lose any more
we’re made for each other like matches and straw
i’m hanging around your back door
