I hear you knocking on the door But you ain't never comin' in, no,no To this house no more 'Cause it ain't like It ain't like it was before You went sailin' on for that distant shore Oh, oh, oh True, we had love so true Oh and we had skies so blue We had skies so blue So I, I had my hopes up high Till all I heard was goodbye When I called for you I turn the key, you twist the knife I can't win, no I can't win Now you're knockin' on the door But you can't come in Oh no So you can take it on the chin Yeah you take it on your weak chin Then you do it all again and again Tell me when will it end And now you come back Oh yeah, you crawled on back With your head held high and Your book of lies in a burlap sack I just don't know, honey, what went wrong Love just can't grow when you're gone so long I turn the key, you twist the knife I can't win, no I can't win Now you're knockin' on the door But you can't come in Oh no Oh you just don't know Which way the wind is going to blow No, you just don't know Just when the sky is going to fall You've been a soldier You've been a privateer Now you're looking much older Yes you are my dear Now your back again From the lion's den You've got a plagiarist's eye You've got a poison pen I turn the key, you twist the knife I can't win, no I can't win Now you're knockin' on the door But you can't come in Oh no Oh you just don't know Which way the wind is going to blow No, you just don't know Just when the sky is going to fall Love can bend you, love can break Hearts can mend and hearts can ache Life will give you what you take Oh, life will give you what you take Love can bend you, love can break Hearts can mend and hearts can ache Life will give you what you take Oh, life will give you what you take
