Here I'm standing at your door,
like so many times before.
Since the time you let me in,
I knew that I'd be here again.
You know I know I got no hope
Still I'm calling out your name
Once I thought I saw your face
Peeking through your window lace
I know I know I saw your face
Peeking through your window lace
Before I crawl back in the water
Just what matters after all
If the time and place are right
Why not get it straight tonight
When tomorrow comes around
There'll be time to melt it down
See what you testify of the rule
But right now I can hardly move
Then you say that I tell lies
I won't believe a word I say
I'll sing the only one I know
Steal a change in copper rhyme
That I heard somewhere before
But please don't ask me to admit
What I've been singing in the ditch
For all these tunes that go around
Have all been driven in the ground
Might as well be tellin' lies
Don't even know if it's a love song
Don't even know you're left from wrong
Like the only thing you do know
Is when it looks like time to go
So I'm standing at your door
I know this time could be the last
If I don't get moving fast
I know, I know I saw your face
Weeping through the window lace
I heard you say the time will come when
there won't be no place to run
And so I'm standing at your door
like so many times before
Since the time you let me in I
knew that I'd be here again
I knew that I'd be here again
I knew that I'd be here again
