I broke your heart
And I made you blue
Instead of hurting back
You said "I love you"
And every day you won my heart
And my love for you shall never part

You have such an understanding way
And I appreciate you, believe what I say
'Cause a love like yours don't come knock, knock, knock, knocking
Knock, knocking everyday
'Cause a love like yours don't come knock, knock, knock, knocking
Knock, knocking everyday

It's the little things you do
That mean so much
So very, very much
(Consideration), I never knew
That is, until I met you

Believe me, baby
You made my life complete
And I know I'm gonna love, with all of my might
You can believe me, I'm gonna hold on tight
'Cause a love like yours don't come knock, knock, knock, knocking
Knock, knocking everyday

No, a love like yours don't come knock, knock, knocking everyday
No darling not everyday

I said a love like yours don't come knock, knock, knock, knocking
Knock, knocking everyday
You know a love like yours, don't come knock, knock, knock, knocking
Knock, knocking everyday
You know a love like yours, don't come knock, knock, knock, knocking
Knock, knocking everyday
