For a long long time now 'bout every night
You found some excuse not to hold me tight
No matter what I do you just sit and pout
So don't let that doorknob hit you going out

Don't let that doorknob hit you going out, baby
Other lips now thrill you, there's no doubt
There's no burden like the love you've made me live without
So don't let that doorknob hang you going out

Well, I've laid awake at night till two or three
So near to you but you're so far from me
The battle's done, you've won your final bout
So don't let that doorknob hit you going out

Don't let that doorknob hit you going out, baby
Other lips now thrill you, there's no doubt
There's no burden like the love you've made me live without
So don't let that doorknob hang you going out

Don't let that doorknob hit you going out
Don't let that doorknob hit you going out
(Don't let that doorknob hit you going out)
