How Many Times Must I Knock

Look to the sea, oh yeah
And you will find, alright
Just ask what you want now
You shall be given, yeah-yeah
Tell me, baby
What's the combination, alright
How many times must I knock
To open the door to your heart, heart, heart?

If you really love me (Love me)
Why don't you tell me so? (Tell me)
Daddy really needs you, baby
Yes, I'd like to know
This old waiting
Is tearing me apart
How many times must I knock
To open the door to your heart, heart, heart?

Tried everything in the book
But that didn't work at all
I spent the very last dime I had
I spent it on a telephone call
I wrote you a ten page letter
And you didn't read it at all
One thing I wanna tell you, my friend
Every road must come to an end

Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Oh yeah yeah

I got to keep on trying
To make my dream come true
I'll do anything on God's green earth
I gotta get next to you
I love you, alright now
I loved you from the start
But how many times must I knock
To open the door to your heart, heart, heart?

Alright, alright
(Alright, alright, gotta keep on trying)
Alright, I got to keep on
(Gotta keep on trying)
I got to, I got to, got to, got to keep on
(I gotta keep on trying)
