"I Hear You Knocking" lyrics

"I Hear You Knocking"
(originally by Dave Bartholomew)

You went away and left me long time ago
Now you're coming back, knocking on my door
I hear you knocking but you can't come in
I hear you knocking, go back where you've been
I begged you not to go, but you said goodbye
And now you come back telling all your lies
I hear you knocking, but you can't come in
I hear you knocking, go back where you've been

If you had a listen long time ago
You wouldn't keep going from door to door
I hear you knocking, but you can't come in
I hear you knocking, go back where you've been
You went away, left me long time ago
Now you're coming back, knocking on my door
I hear you knocking but you can't come in
I hear you knocking, go back where you've been
