Magna Doors (Remastered)

from Magna Doors (Deluxe) by The Shaker Heights

/

about

The first (but not last) break-up song I would write. The 'Magna Doors' meaning 'great door' was about serendipity and the burden of the decision one makes to walk another path out of a relationship. It was our first big anthem, and became one of our biggest live numbers.

lyrics

Magna Doors

You used to move me, now I guess that's changed for the better
No beating of drums or sounding of horns, bit like trying to find
your right Magna Door.

Now that I have loved once, I wont turn the knife in any deeper.
If I could have seen your face while I was away hurting you, I'd
have fallen through the right Magna Door

Turn around, turn around, turn around, turn around, to your
right Magna Door.
Turn around, turn around, turn around, turn around, to your
right Magna Door.

Now why would you still want me, think of when we had
nothing to say to each other.
I would try to impress everyone except you, but now they've
turned their backs on me for evermore.

We had everyone to surround us, but there was only you at
every dying hour.
But there was something inside that made me feel like I had to
try to find the right Magna Door.

Turn around, turn around, turn around, turn around, to your
right Magna Door.
Turn around, turn around, turn around, turn around, to your
right Magna Door
