Let Me In

Let Me In

I could not leave before now, I could not stay any longer
I hope the distance between us will help our love grow stronger
I was so near and yet I was remote
These falling tears, my voice sticks in my throat

Will you let me in? I stand here before you in my naked skin
Will you let me in? I’m asking you over and over and over
And over and over again

Because you shut me out, you went away
I asked you why but you could not say
You shut me out, you closed the door
Though you’re asking me to stay forever more…

Can I have a little patience? Can I have a little faith?
‘Cause there’s nothing to do but wait for you, I know

I could not stay any longer, I could not leave before now
I hope that this separation will bring you back somehow
I love you true with all my heart
It pains me to be apart

Will you let me in? I stand here before you in my naked skin
Will you let me in? I’m asking you over and over and over
And over and over again

Because you shut me out, you went away
I asked you why but you could not say
You shut me out, you closed the door
Though you’re asking me to stay forever more…

Can I have a little patience? Can I have a little faith?
So I promise to wait for you like a prayer
I’ll wait for you, will you meet me there?

(You let me in, you let me in, you let me in – and I’m so happy now!)
I waited, I was patient, I waited for you
I waited, I was patient, because I love you
Come home to me
Come home, oh my darling
Come home to me
Come home, you finally let me in
