Here he comes again
Every night at half-past ten
And we can hear him knock on the outside door
And by eleven o'clock we can bear no more
Here he comes again
Hear him crying "Let me in"
And while he scares us most as the night time ends
We'll ignore the ghost of our old abandoned friend
[Chorus]
And if his lips can lie
Can his eyelids cheat?
If he closed his eyes
Could he still see me?
Does he hear me ask
Or does he still pretend?
We're free at last
But here he comes again
Here he comes again
Here comes our furthest friend
And if he rests his head on the window pane
We'll pretend we're dead when he comes again
[Chorus]
Here he comes again
Tapping on our window pane
And he'll scratch his name on the outside door
And by eleven o'clock we can bear no more
[Chorus x3]
