|
I'm stood outside the rain |
|
I can see him up in the tower |
|
He's no idea of the pain I'm in |
|
And I've been knocking on his door for hours |
|
The wind whips high in the trees |
|
And the bells ring loud in my ears |
|
Like a broken man on his knees |
|
I'm holding back my pain and tears |
|
Knock, knock, knocking on the chapel door |
|
His ring, ring, ringing on his bell |
|
I'm alone and so tired |
|
And under some wicked spell |
|
Knock, knock, knocking on the chapel door |
|
Won't you please come down and let me in? |
|
It's a dreadful state of affairs, my friend |
|
That I find my bad self in |
|
I call up yelling in vain |
|
And the night brings its shadows and fear |
|
He's no idea of the pain I'm in |
|
And he's no idea that I'm here |
|
Knock, knock, knocking on the chapel door |
|
His ring, ring, ringing on his bell |
|
I'm alone and so tired |
|
And under some wicked spell |
|
Knock, knock, knocking on the chapel door |
|
Won't you please come down and let me in? |
|
It's a dreadful state of affairs, my friend |
|
That I find my bad self in |
