Backyard Songtext
von Nennen

I was in the backyard hanging up the laundry
When you ran out from the kitchen and pulled me back inside
Something in your voice, I could tell you were in trouble
But I couldn′t put my finger on how or why


Who could ever blame you, wanting what you wanted
Just a little bit of comfort and a pretty place to hide
Who could ever blame us children for believing you
That anything could happen if we'd only close our eyes

Now you′re pacing like a panther bloodless in a cage
You are a dancer of the hunt without the memory of a kill
I'll be in the backyard, call me if you want me
I'll be waiting with my eyes closed
Sitting very still
