let me in

Rick Springfield

I ve got this picture here inside my head
Of you one morning early
You were still asleep in bed
The dog was snoring
As I left to catch a plane
And I saw your hairband laying there
I took it with me

I remember how you looked in love
Like angels kissed your face
There was nothing you couldn t rise above
You found my hiding place
You turned me to the sun
When you pulled the thread I came undone
I heard you say

Let me in
Why don t you let me in
Let me in
Why won t you let me in

Now those memories all hold on to me
Like pages from a book I wasn t meant to see
A rock of ages fall to pieces in my hands
As the ring slips off your finger
I run to catch it
And tonight I m lying next to you
I hear you breathing
There s so much to say but words are few
Farewell to Eden
Though I m standing at the gates
I m on the outside and I m looking in
Can you hear me

Let me in
Why won t you let me in
Let me in
Why won t you let me in

I caused a flood but I still let you drown
Your in my blood
God knows I won t back down
Without your love
The world won t turn around

Let me in
Why won t you let me in
Let me in
Why won t you let me in

I don t think the girl s in love
I don t think the girl s in love
I don t think the girl s in love
