This happened once before
that I came to your door
no reply
they said it wasn't you
but I saw you peep through
your window

I saw the light, I saw the light
I know that you saw me
'cause I looked up to see
your face

I tried the telephone
they said you were not home
that's a lie
'cause I know where you've been
'cause I saw you walk in
your door

I nearly died, I nearly died
'cause you walked hand in hand
with another man
in my place

If I were you, I'd realize that I
love you more than any other guy
and I'll forgive the lies that I
heard before, when you gave me no reply

I tried the telephone
they said you were not home
that's a lie
'cause I know where you've been
'cause I saw you walk in
your door

I nearly died, I nearly died
'cause you walked hand in hand
with another man
in my place

No reply, no reply
