When you want me, I'll come knocking
At your door, at your door
One of these days now you'll be rocking
You'll be rocking in my arms once more
But I'm late again, I'm late again, I'm late again
Show me a wonder that you can't be sure of
Now it's wait again, it's wait again, it's wait again
Show me a picture of the one you love
When you want me, I'll come knocking
At your door, at your door
One of these days now you'll be rocking
You'll be rocking in my arms once more
But it was Christmas time, it was Easter time, it was Summer time
Sail away, sail away to your daddy's garden
Now it's Winter time, it's Winter time, it's Winter time
And it's much too late to ask your pardon
When you want me, I'll come knocking
At your door, at your door
One of these days now you'll be rocking
You'll be rocking in my arms once more
