Barclay James Harvest - Back To The Wall

Stranger at the gate, let him in
Stranger at the gate, let him in
Stranger at the gate, let him in
Won't you let him in?

He's been waiting on the other side
He's been waiting on the other side
He's been waiting for the turn of the tide
Won't you let him in?

Promises leave you with nothing to show
Destiny leaves you with nowhere to go

Back to the wall
Have you seen the light?
Is your soul worth saving?
Back to the wall
Can you pay the price
Then your life is waiting?

Down by the shore
We can help you no more
Standing with our back to the wall

Is your soul worth saving?
(Stranger at the gate, let him in)
(Stranger at the gate, let him in)
Have you seen the light?
(Stranger at the gate, let him in, won't you let him in?)

Then your life is waiting
(He's been waiting on the other side)
(He's been waiting on the other side)
Can you pay the price?
(He's been waiting for the turn of the tide
(Won't you let him in)

Promises leave you with nothing to show
Destiny leaves you with nowhere to go

Back to the wall
Have you seen the light?
Is your soul worth saving?
Back to the wall
Can you pay the price
Then your life is waiting

Down by the shore
We can help you no more
Standing with our back to the wall

Stranger at the gate, let him in
Stranger at the gate, let him in
Stranger at the gate, let him in
Won't you let him in?

He's been waiting on the other side
He's been waiting on the other side
He's been waiting for the turn of the tide
Won't you let him in?

Promises leave you with nothing to show
Destiny leaves you with nowhere to go

Back to the wall
Have you seen the light?
Is your soul worth saving?
Back to the wall
Can you pay the price
Then your life is waiting?

Down by the shore
We can help you no more
Standing with our back to the wall

Is your soul worth saving?
(Stranger at the gate, let him in)
(Stranger at the gate, let him in)
Have you seen the light?
(Stranger at the gate, let him in, won't you let him in?)

Then your life is waiting
(He's been waiting on the other side)
(He's been waiting on the other side)
Can you pay the price?
(He's been waiting for the turn of the tide
(Won't you let him in)

Promises leave you with nothing to show
Destiny leaves you with nowhere to go

Back to the wall
Have you seen the light?
Is your soul worth saving?
Back to the wall
Can you pay the price
Then your life is waiting

Down by the shore
We can help you no more
Standing with our back to the wall

Apart from supplying the albums title, this song was apparently inspired by the situation in Berlin and the bands free concert there. There is a double meaning ...
