Nick Cave & The Bad Seed - I Let Love In Lyrics




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 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

I let love in

I let love in

I let love in

I let love in

I let love in

I let love in
