Текст песни I Let Love In

Despair and deception

Love's ugly little twins

Came a-knocking on my door

I let them in

Darling, you're the punishment

For all of my former sins



I let love in, I let love in



The door it opened just a crack

But love was shrewed and bold

My life flashed before my eyes

It was a horror to behold

A life-sentence sweeping confetti

From the floor of a concrete hole



I let love in, I let love in

I let love in, I let love in



Well, I've been bound and gagged

And I've been terrorized

And I've been castrated

And I've been lobotomized

But never has my tormentor come

In such a cunning disguise



I let love in, I let love in


I let love in, I let love in






Oh Lord, tell me what I done

Please don't leave me here alone

Where are my friends?

My friends are gone



Oh Lord, tell me what I done

Please don't leave me here alone

Where are my friends?

My friends are gone



I let love in, I let love in



So if you're sitting all alone

And hear a knocking at you door

And the air is full of promises

Well buddy, you've been warned

Far worse to be love's lover

Than the lover that love has scorned



I let love in, I let love in

Yeah, I let love in, I let love in

I let love in, baby I let love in

I let love in, I let love in
