I Never Heard You Knockin' Songtext
von Malcolm Holcombe

I never heard you knockin′

I spent my life feelin' sorry for myself
Never sorry about you
Words in my mouth i made up for my ears
Goin′ out not comin' in

That big ol' front door had steel side to side
It never had a key
Windows painted shut didnt matter anyhow
Everyone in town knew where we lived


I didnt have to call you to come by for awhile
I never heard you knockin′ cause you called my name out loud

Time moves along even when you′re sittin' still
My mind plays tricks in the silence
I mumble and stutter and wonder in the night
Still a′goin' out not a′comin' in

I close my eyes and the moon keeps on shinin′
A million stars up in the sky
I close my eyes and i'm always reminded
Still a'goin′ out not a′comin' in
