What If I Came Knocking

[Verse 1]

What if I came knocking

On your front door some night?

Would you open the window

And drop me down the key?

What if I came knocking

On your bedpost that same night?

Would you open up your heart

Or try to get the best of me?

[Verse 2]

What if I came knocking

On your brain the next day

And ask for your truth

And your love and your honesty?

Would you build up your big walls

And try to hide behind that smile

Or would you try to pull the wool

Right over me?

[Chorus]

So what if I came knocking?

(Ah, what if I came knocking?)

So what if I came knocking?

(Ah, what if I came knocking?)

[Verse 3]

So what if I came kicking

And it scared you a little bit?

And I came on strong

Would you think

That there's something wrong with me?

Or could it be your fears

Of trying something real

Or just afraid to touch a

A guy like me?

[Chorus]

What if I came knocking?

(Ah, what if I came knocking?)

What if I came knocking?

(Ah, what if I came knocking?)

What if I came knocking

On your front door some night?

Ah

[Verse 4]

So let's just say it worked out

Like a storybook dream

And we lived happily ever after

Fa la la la

But what if I came crying

After just a few weeks

And said I misread my heart

This is not really meant to be?

Yeah

[Verse 5]

So if you hear some knocking

On your window tonight

You can bet that it's uh

Probably me

But let it be known

That we're just a pair of tumbling dice

And the outcome of these crap shoots

Is hard to see

[Chorus]

So what if I came knocking?

(What if I came knocking?)

So what if I came knocking?

(What if I came knocking?)

So what if I came knocking

On your front door tonight?

Ah

(What if I came knocking?)

So what if I came knocking?

Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knocking

(What if I came knocking?)

Kick, kick, kick

(What if I came knocking?)

What if I came knocking

On your front porch tonight, tonight?
