(Gary Brooker/Pete Sinfield) |
|
I've been watching your performance |
|
From the minute you got here |
|
you've been riding on your high horse |
|
But your motives are not clear |
|
You have filled up all the ashtrays |
|
And the carpets wearing thin |
|
I believe we both speak English |
|
Won't you kindly let me in |
|
Let me in all I want to do is help you |
|
Let me in, let me in, let me in |
|
You keep looking out the window |
|
You keep staring at the door |
|
Yeah and every time the phone rings |
|
You make frantic semaphore |
|
I'm a man that's used to trouble |
|
I've seen all the seven sins |
|
I'll even be your long lost uncle |
|
If you'll only let me in . .. |
|
Let me in all I want to do is help you |
|
Let me in, let me in, let me in |
|
You know they say a trouble shared's a trouble half way gone |
|
But bottle it inside and you'll explode |
|
I'd rather have your tears than nitro-glycerine |
|
So let me in I can take the load |
|
I can mend a heart that's broken |
|
Put a patch on your romance |
|
But I gotta have some detail |
|
Time and place and circumstance |
|
I'm a man that's used to trouble |
|
I've seen all the seven sins |
|
There ain't nothin' left to shock me |
|
But you gotta let me in . .. |
