Mark Erelli - Thought I Heard You Knocking lyrics

(Mark Erelli) I thought I heard you knocking As I sprung up from my chair Flung the door wide open There was no one standing there It's getting harder every moment To tell what's really real Sometimes it ain't the things you know It's more the way you feel I thought I heard you knocking Tapping soft and light Like the sounds an old house offers When it settles for the night You used to be just as familiar Like whiskey on my breath Now whenever you come calling You scare me half to d**h Haven't you already had your fun Or maybe this has only just begun You got me wondering should I stay or should run Won't you tell me what you think it is I done I thought I heard you knocking Like a hard rain tumbling down When I strain my ears to listen I can scarcely hear the sound Some questions they have answers And you never ask again Some questions only lead To places you've already been It's such a dark and bitter seed you've sown I've got a worried feeling deep down in my bones If I look at you will I just turn to stone I don't know why you won't leave me alone I thought I heard you knocking Sharp and shallow on my door
