The Unseen Guest - Let Me In lyrics

rate me

The days run together

They crowd at your front gate

But you can't let them in

So you tell them to wait

And one by one

They file up the driveway

And your bell is still ringing

As down goes the day

So you take off your shoes

And you turn up the volume

And they all go to sleep

While you're safe in your room

And in your bed at night

A stranger sleeps beside

And she opens your wardrobe

And she fumbles inside

Chorus:

Let me in, let me in

Or ill blow your house down

Let me in, let me in

Cause there's snow on the ground

I won't wait here forever

And then you will see

You should never say never

Cause I sow what you reap

They huddle on your doorstep

As the clouds start to break

And they scratch at your windows

And they bang on your gate

And they walk on your doormat

With wet muddy shoes

And now and then the lights go out

Cause they've stolen the fuse

And sometimes in the night

You answer the phone

And they breathe down the line

Just to see if you're home

They sing in your garden

Like dogs when the fight

And the noise that they make

Drills holes in the night

Chorus
