Lyrics - I Let Love In by Cave Nick

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 tormenter come in such a cunning disguise
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
O
Lord, tell me what
I done
Please don't leave me here alone
Where are my friends?
My friends are gone
O
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 doorand 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
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
