Nobody

I'm feeling down, even more then usual today
so if my door is closed
don't knock just go away
Besides, what can you do about a love that's been cursed
How would you cheer up a man at his worst
Do you know how it feels to have such an ache
Damn you, come in if you must just stop all the pounding, 
quit your knocking for Christs sake...
...Nobody was there, just a broken branch swaying in the wind
Looks like loneliness will be my only companion again tonight
To hear someone knock upon my door
I wish, I wish with all my might
