I have never seen your house from the street
I have to climb this tree each night we meet
I love you girl but I feel incomplete
why can't I be your front door man
I'm getting sick of all this sneaking around
would it be so bad if we were found, oh girl
I love you but I feel sorrow bound
why can't I be your front door man
is it because you're no good that I don't think that we should
is it because I'm ashamed, or are we just playing games
is it because I have doubts whether our love will work out
or do I have second thoughts because I've loved and I've lost
is it because you are saved and Daddy thinks I'm depraved
don't let him force your hand, and let me be your front door man
baby tell me what it's gonna be
I've got to choose you or my secrecy
answer the question that's bee puzzling me
why can't I be your front door man
man ought not be lonely when his love is near
but I know I'm not the only one with fears
but I'm crying sad and lonely, lonely tears
why can't I be your front door man
is it because of your friends that we've been paying pretend
or are you scared to say 'yes' because you might find success
darlin' we won't have to hide if you'll just swallow your pride
why don't you give me it straight 'cause there's no more time to waste
is it because you are saved and Daddy thinks I'm depraved
don't let him force your hand, and let me be your front door
and let me be your front door
man
