KNOCK THREE TIMES
TONY ORLANDO & DAWN
Hey
girl what ya doin' down there
Dancin' alone every night while I live right
above you
I
can hear your music playin'
I
can feel your body swayin'
One
floor below me you don't even know me
I
love you
Oh
my darling
Knock three times on the ceiling if you want
me
Twice on the pipe if the answer is no
Oh
my sweetness
Means you'll meet me in the hallway
Twice on the pipe means you ain't gonna show
If
you look out your window tonight
Pull
in the string with the note that's attached to my heart
Read
how many times I saw you
How in
my silence I adored you
Only
in my dreams did that wall between us come apart
Oh
my darling
Knock three times on the ceiling if you want
me
Twice on the pipe if the answer is no
Oh
my sweetness
Means you'll meet me in the hallway
Twice on the pipe means you ain't gonna show
I
can hear your music playin'
I
can feel your body swayin'
One
floor below me you don't even know me
I
love you
Oh
my darling
Knock three times on the ceiling if you want
me
Twice on the pipe if the answer is no
Oh
my sweetness
Means you'll meet me in the hallway
Twice on the pipe means you ain't gonna show
