Doorknob

I'm not gonna sleep inside your doorknob
but if you want me to
I'm going to.
All your life the road's been uphill
and everyday you lose the thrill
of making love in the afternoon
my freedom is coming soon
I feel safe and warm up on the sofa
I'll spend my life just getting older
I climb the stairs up to your room
but you're not there and ya won't be soon
I'm not gonna sleep inside your doorknob
but if you want me to
I'm going to.
Up in your room a void is growing
it takes a toll on you without showing
the dresser's black and filled to burst
the book stack lacks a reader's thirst
I'm not gonna sleep inside your doorknob
but if you want me to
I'm going to.
Let your inhibitions fall away
turn the handle it need not be this way
when my loving is for sure. (don't block me from your love)
You say you can meet me past halfway
but I'm running out of luck today
let your bright eyes burn my world
Your face is kind but there is nothing real
it won't show all the true things that you feel
keep your light on little girl
I'm not gonna sleep inside your doorknob
but if you want me to
I'm going to.
