Don’t Come Back Knockin’ on the Door of My Heart (Cause No One Will Be Home)
You never came home last evening
I awoke and I couldn’t find your hat.
Yet again without a warning
Guess I can blame your heart for that.
How do I never see it coming?
You pulled this sting once or twice.
And as I step outside this morning,
I’ve a mind to leave you some advice.
Enjoy the freedom on your skin.
And when you come back here again
Read close this note that I left upon our door.
Says what I never got the chance to say before.
I’m gone and never coming back here, boy.
You’ve got no choice I’m leaving on my own.
Don’t try to find me cause I’ve had enough.
I even changed the number on my phone.
Them other girls can have your cheating heart
‘Cause I’d much rather be alone.
And don’t come back knockin’ on the door of my heart, cause no one will be home.
I’ll be so far gone when you read this
In Rome or maybe in Spain.
Go cry on someone else’s shoulder
You’ll never hear my name again.
I’s such a fool, oh what a shame.
Thank God the lease is in your name.
I’ll take my heart though it’s bruised and it’s scarred.
Bad news for you, honey, you’ll have to mow the yard.
I’m gone and never coming back here, boy
You’ve got no choice I’m leaving on my own.
Don’t try to find me cause I’ve had enough.
I even changed the number on my phone.
Them other girls can have your cheating heart
‘Cause I’d much rather be alone.
And don’t come back knockin’ on the door of my heart, cause no one will be home.
Ya know I may have lied.
Hope it doesn’t make you mad.
So I’ll tell you the truth, babe.
You ain’t the best I ever had.
I’m gone and never coming back here, boy
You’ve got no choice I’m leaving on my own
Don’t try to find me cause I’ve had enough
I even changed the number on my phone
Them other girls can have your cheating heart
‘Cause I’d much rather be alone
And don’t come back knockin’ on the door of my heart, cause no one will be home
Yeah, no one will be home. Yeah, no one will be home.
