Cowboy Junkies - I Let Him In lyrics

rate me

He says, You will never know

There are no rhymes to do you justice."

And he will sit there, outside,

Until you no longer doubt his purpose.

So, I let him in.

I opened the door, and let him in.

Yah...I let him in. Opened my heart...

Some wounds will never heal

Loneliness becomes an expectation.

But you stretched there by my side

And you whisper those foolish incantations.

So, I let her in

A crooked smile and I let her in

Opened the door, she walked right in

I opened my heart...

It came to me wrapped like a gift in a dream,

But then the dream disappeared

And the gift went too

And ever since I've been searching

For me and you

Ever since I've been searching for you

He said, "You will never know

There are no rhymes to do you justice."

And he will sit there by your side

Until you no longer doubt his purpose.

So, she let me in

She opened the door, I walked right in

Yah...she let me in.

Yes, she let me in

She opened the door, I walked right in.

Yah...she let me in. Opened her heart...
