The song is the lament of one of the female characters, an aging actress now reduced to the small town touring circuit, for all her missed opportunities at having a successful relationship with an old flame. The "bridge" of the song goes:
Just when I'd stopped opening doors
Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours
Making my entrance again with my usual flair
Sure of my lines. . .
No one is there.
Some years ago, I came up with the following bridge for a parody I like to call "Send in the Cats":
Why won't they just open the door
So I can go in and out, like I used to, before?
Making my entrance again with my tail in the air,
Knowing it's time
To hork up some hair. . . .
You be the judge. . . .
