Song title: Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - I Let Love In

Edit By: 216.73.216.251

Despair and deception, loves ugly little twins
Came a-knocking on my door, I let them in
Darling, youre 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 Ive been bound and gagged and Ive been terrorized
And Ive been castrated and Ive 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 dont leave me here alone
Where are my friends?
My friends are gone

O lord, tell me what I done
Please dont leave me here alone
Where are my friends?
My friends are gone

I let love in
I let love in

So if youre sitting all alone and hear a-knocking at you door
And the air is full of promises, well buddy, youve been warned
Far worse to be loves 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
