You oughta know by now


That a man can't hold on forever,


So why do you keep me waiting here


When you know it makes me want you more?


 


You oughta know by now


How it feels to be loved,


So why d'you keep me hanging here,


With this stone around my heart, dragging me down, down, down


 


When I'll I'm trying to do is trying to get next to you, let me in, let me in.


 


You oughta know by now,


Or maybe someone should show you


That a man needs to be loved


And even in this man's world


With you it don't come easy.


 


You oughta know by now


That no man can sleep at night


With a burning in his heart


That would tear this man apart -


Take me out of my misery,


 


'Cos all I'm trying to do is trying to get next to you, let me in, let me in.


 


You oughta know by now


Just how good it feels to be wanted,


And no man could love you more,


So why can't you show me something,


Just a little bit of something?


 


You oughta know by now


All the things a man has to do in his life,


And all these things I do


You know that I do it all for you,


I do it all for you.


 


'Cos all I'm trying to do is trying to get next to you,


Yes all I'm trying to do is trying to get next to you.


 


Let me in,


Let me in,


Let me in your heart.
