Don't Start Knocking

(album: Primitive Dance - 1987)

Tell me I was just dreaming
Tell me this isn't true
You were only pretending
Tell me this is not the real you

Catch you hiding your lovelight so nobody sees it
You bury your diamonds deep down in the ground
You're trading your high hopes for a chip on your shoulder
Blaming your best friend for putting you down

When you hear your name, don't feel out of place
When you look in the mirror put a smile on your face
And don't start knocking when it's you you see
Cos you become what you imagine yourself to be
Yeah, you become what you imagine yourself to be

Don't start knocking
Keep the world from rocking
Don't start knocking

You are so beautiful
No-one is more beautiful than you
Don't let nothing get to you
Keep on keep on shining through

When you hear your name, don't feel out of place
When you look in the mirror put a smile on your face
And don't start knocking when it's you you see
'Cos you become what you imagine yourself to be
Yeah, you become what you imagine yourself to be

Don't start knocking
Keep the world from rocking
Don't start knocking
Keep the world from rocking

When you hear your name (don't start knockin')
When you look in the mirror (don't start knockin')
When the joint starts jumping (don't start knockin')
When I say I love you (don't start knockin')
When I call up your number (don't start knockin')
