Lyrics A Million Miles Away Behind the Door (From the Paramount Production 'Paint Your Wagon') - Astrud Gilberto

Behind the door of every house
In every street, in every town
A story is unfolding
A story is unfolding of love and hate
The most of us wait of hopes and fears
Of smiles and tears of dreams that lie a moldering
Behind the door of every house
In every street, in every town
The stage is set for playing
The stage is set for playing
And I call crime or punch you′re mime
Sweet romance, a rich will dance the characters are playing
Behind the door of every house
In every street, in every town
The people are a waiting
The people are a waiting
To bare and die, the years go by
The wedding spree, the cruelty and still they go on mating
And to the one the only one
Remember when the need of man is great again
The prayers take off ascending
All filled with love to the one above
Asking for, asking for, asking for, asking for
A happy ending, a happy ending, a happy ending, yeah
