Lyrics Knockin' on Every Door - T&A Demo – Aug 15, 1989 - Per Gessle

Hey now, honey
You gotta face the floor, you're headed for the heart
But you couldn't find the door, could you?
Oh, could you?

Well, I'm standing in the sun, I'm living in the rain
I gotta get a-whirlin' like a human hurricane over you
Over you

Now you're looking like a fox on the run
And you're faster than a shot from a gun
I'm looking at you, whoa-oh, you
I'm talking 'bout you, hey, you

I thought we had love in store (keep on knockin' on every door)
Babe, I've seen it all before (you keep on knockin' on every door)
Ain't no lovin' you ignore (you keep on knockin' on every door)
Keep, keep knock, knockin' on every door
(You keep on knockin' on every door) ow!

Hey now, honey, time is all you've spent
You moved into the bed, but you couldn't pay the rent, could you?
Could you?

In the twinkle of an eye, you electrify
I gotta get a shootin' like a rocket in the sky, bye-bye
Goodbye

Now you're burning like you're hot on the scene
Don't you love to steal a part of my dream?
I'm looking at you, whoa-oh, you
I'm talking 'bout you, hey, you

I thought we had love in store (keep on knockin' on every door)
Babe, I've seen it all before (you keep on knockin' on every door)
Ain't no sugar you ignore (you keep on knockin' on every door)
Keep, keep knock, knockin' on every door
(You keep on knockin' on every door)

I thought we had love in store (keep on knockin' on every door)
Babe, I've seen it all before (you keep on knockin' on every door)
Ain't no lovin' you ignore (you keep on knockin' on every door)
Keep, keep knock, knockin' on every door
(You keep on knockin' on every door)

I thought we used to have love in store (keep knock, knockin' on every door)
Hey, babe, don't run around here no more (you keep on knockin' on every door)
Ain't no sugar you ignore (you keep on knockin' on every door)
Keep, keep knock, knockin' on every door
(You keep on knockin' on every door)

You'd better learned your lesson now
