Back Door

What if you leave? What if I came? When it's all told, what if we both turn to the Lord?
What'll it prove? What'll it change, other than filling up Sunday?
What if we stopped singing in time? What if I fancied preaching?
Come sweet sin, I was saved, I was saved by a woman! What'll you try? I'd better abstain; When'll we meet in the middle or not?
Who will we see? We better tiptoe, better be kind to the jealous
What if we keep starting our days finishing sentences
And how can I package up these best intentions for you?

Let's look back on what we've done until now
I think it's such a shame
When memories are trapped
I stand before you babe, rejoicing in it all
No back door

What'll we prove? What'll we seek? What'll we choose?
What'll we both choose to ignore?
What if we shut everything out, just do the rounds at Christmas?
What if I know all that you want is a dog and a house on the island?
Why do you think I'm going to find myself a corporate sponsor

Let's look back...

What if I died? What if you died? What if our plants and pets and friends and families died? Would it all stop, would we give chase, scattering joy and laughter?
What if I said we'd better prepare making a record of out love, let's bring that camera on our next vacation!

Let's look back...
