Lyrics
Despair and deception, love's ugly little twins Came a-knockin' on my door, I let 'em in Darlin', you're the punishment for all my former sins I let love in, I let love in The door, it opened just a crack, but my love was shrewd and bold My life flashed before my eyes, it was a horror to behold A life sentence, sweepin' 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 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 sittin' there all alone and hear a knockin' at your 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
