Lyrics

[TT:] Ooo here
I am alone, thinkin' aimlessly
Seein' other girls in love & wishin' it were me
If I could only find the key & make love come my way
I would trade this loneliness for true love any day[Both:]
When love comes knockin' at my heart
I'm surely gonna let it in
When love comes knockin' at my heart
Happiness will surely begin[TT:]
Oh darlin', [MG:]
Oh darlin'[TT:]
Oh darlin', [MG:]
Oh darlin'[MG:]
Emptiness is in the air & all around me gloom
As I gaze through the window of my lonely room
I hate to get up in the mornin' 'cause
I know what lies ahead
Where there should be a cheerful smile, there's loneliness instead[Both:]
When love comes knockin' at my heart
I'm surely gonna let it in
When love comes knockin' at my heart
Happiness will surely begin[MG:]
Oh if you've never been in love, darlin'
Then you're just like me, now[TT:]
Don't you get lonely?
What am I to be?
Oh darlin', [MG:]
Oh darlin'[TT:]
Oh darlin', [MG:]
Oh darlin'[TT:]
Oh darlin', [MG:]
Oh darlin'[TT:]
Oh darlin', [MG:]
Oh darlin'[TT:]
My heart's full of envy for the girl who lives next door
She has so many things that
I've never had before[MG:]
She possesses one thing
I've never had a chance to get
That's someone to call her own & there's one thing you can bet[Both:]
When love comes knockin' at my heart
I'm surely gonna let it in
When love comes knockin' at my heart
Happiness will surely begin[TT:]
Oh darlin', [MG:]
Oh darlin'[TT:]
Oh darlin', [MG:]
Oh darlin'[TT:]
When love comes,
I'm gonna let it in
Because I know
I'll be happy then
Loneliness will be no more
When love comes, gonna open that door
When love comes, when love comes
Oh darlin', when love comes[...& fade]
