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 it in
I let love in, babe, I let love in
I let love in, I let love in
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 it in
I let love in, babe, I let love in
I let love in, I let love in
