A Doorway ?(Russell Dennett/Philip Oakey/Neil Sutton)

 

When you gave your love to me, I never gave you chains.
If you need to prove you're free.
My love for you remains (you know my love stays)
Love is not a prison cell.
True love can never die
There's nothing that you shouldn't tell
You never have to lie (to me you shouldn't)

 

But if you have to keep something inside you.
You know I'll never want to steal it away

 

I respect your territory.
Hope there's room in world for me.
Is there room in your mind to see.
a doorway ? if you say

 

Blood is pumping through my heart.
And flowing through my veins.
All it keeps me living for.
The love that is sustains (You now I never).
Time stopped when I saw your face.
And if it start I'll cry
The universe is in your smile.
Is heaven in your eye ?

But if you have to keep something inside you.
You know I'll never want to steal it away

 

I respect your territory.
Hope there's room in your world for me.
Is there room in your mind to see.
a doorway ? if you say
I respect your territory (you need your territory.)
Hope there's room in your world for me (find a place in your world for me).
Is there room in your mind to see (I want a doorway).
A doorway ? if you say.

 

I respect your territory (you need your territory.)
Hope there's room in your world for me (keep a place in your mind for me ?).
Is there room in your mind to see (I want a doorway).
A doorway ? if you say.

 

I know you need your territory (you need your territory.)
Is there room in your world for me (Can't you see what it means to me ?).
Hope there's room in your mind to see (I need a doorway).
A doorway ? One fine day (I want a).

 

I respect your territory (you need your territory.)
Hope there's room in your world for me (Can't you find a place for me ?).
Is there room in your mind to see.
A doorway ? if you say (I want a doorway).

 

I respect your territory (I need a territory.)
Hope there's room in your world for me (Can't you find a place for me ?).
Is there room in your mind to see (I want a doorway).
A doorway ? (I want a, I want a, I want a doorway).
if you say.

 

 

Comment

A truly superb psychological pearl of a song, concerning the ever present problem of people "in love" killing each other emotionally ever so slowly.

 

When you gave your love to me, I never gave you chains.

Love is not a prison cell.

Take a LONGGGGG look at the first line........ So true and yet so hard to find
in real life. Freedom in relationships are VERY rare indeed, luckily for us
Phil hits bulls-eye more often in his songs, than such relationships are found.

Hello world, grab your balls and MAKE the jump, don't be afraid trust your next man to grab you and open the door to a magic world of trust and love. You may be in for deep dive, but the way up again reveals it's very own rewards. You MUST dare to loose love, before you can ever truly find it. (Happy hunting)
