Lyrics
Verse 1:
I stand here again outside your heart, knocking at its door
I'll bet you hear me out here and you're wonderin' what I've come back for
I know you're in there, lonely and tired, workin' on that wall
Just listen through the keyhole, baby, you will hear me call
Chorus:
Hello, hello, can I come in?
I'm back at your heart again
Opening up to love can set you free
Maybe this time you'll let me in
V2:
I've got no package for you to claim, got no delivery
But like the mailman I keep comin' 'round, yet it's only you I come to see
But I just cannot get past this door on my efforts alone
I'm waiting at the threshold, baby, is anybody home?
Chorus:
Hello, hello, can I come in?
I'm back at your heart again
Opening up to love can set you free
Maybe this time you'll let me in
Bridge:
You're a lonely boy, a frozen man
Sealed up in your cell
Let's build a fire inside and warm ourselves
Get up and answer the bell
Chorus:
Hello, hello, can I come in?
I'm back at your heart again
Opening up to love can set you free
Maybe this time you'll let me in...
