Lover's Question was done very well by Loggins and Messina. That was my first intro to that tune. I always thought I'd be a great third partner in that band. Our voices blended well together. House at Pooh corner was the inspiration for naming my first child. (no, not POOH ... Christopher ! )

Donny it goes like this

You once said you could never love another
And there'd never be another one like me
Your so strange now please don't you change now
Don't break your promise to me(Now I'll jump to the bridge)

I remember when I met you
And you said it t'was me you'd always love
Now l'm willing dear to bet you
It's not me that you're dreaming of


Gary,
What about:

(So this is the garden of eden
And here on the threshold we stand)

I think the name of the tune is "Hold My Hand"

Would you know it and who sang it in the early 50's or may be even the late 40's?

Little Richard's song is completey different. It just has the same title.

Little Richard's song was "I Hear You Knockin' But You Can't Come In."

Now that I think of it, there were not many more words in Little Richard's song. "Come back tomorrow night and try it again."

Wow! Strange things in my mind lately,

Gary

Little Richard's line was:

"You keep a-knockin' but you can't come in,
Come back tomorrow night and try it again"

though that wasn't the title as I recall. Maybe the actual title was Keep A-Knocking (just my guess). As for Smiley Lewis' "I Hear You Knocking", that was covered around 1971 by Dave Edmunds.

Talking of knocking, how 'bout "Don't Knock the Rock" - remember the old Bill Haley movie? Little Richard was in that, too.
