Let Me In
[Verse 1]
I’ve been standing at the door outside
When you gonna let me in?
I’ve been waiting for a show tonight
When you gonna let me in?

[Chorus 1]
Are you ever gonna let me in?
Oh, you don’t let me
Never gonna let me in
Are you ever gonna let me in?
Oh, you can’t let me
Never gonna let me
Oh, will you let me in?

[Verse 2]
I’ve been patient for a long, long while
Hoping for a lock to give
If you’re worried I keep you up all night
How you gonna let me in?

[Chorus 2]
Are you never gonna let me in?
Oh, you don’t let me
Never gonna let me in
Are you ever gonna let me in?
Oh, you can’t let me
Never gonna let me in
Are you ever gonna let me in?
Not without asking
Never gonna let me in
If you’re ever gonna let me in
You better hurry
How you gonna let me in?
Oh, will you let me in?
[Verse 3]
Oh, when it’s getting hard
And no one else is in sight
And all this waiting for you makes me hope
That after all this time
Turn on the light
I can’t stay now without a sign

[Bridge]
(I’ve been stranded)
I’ve been stranded at the door outside
You’re never gonna let me in
(I’ve been waiting)
I’ve been patient, but I’m over now
And now you’re gonna want me, when?

[Chorus 3]
You’re not ready for the lock to give
No, you don’t let me
Never gonna let me in
Were you ever gonna let me in?
No, you can’t let me
Never gonna let me in
Were you ever gonna let me in?
In, without asking
(Never gonna let me in)
Oh, were you ever gonna let me in?
Not without begging
(Never gonna let me in)
Oh, I’ve been waiting for a lock to give
(Oh, you can’t let me
Never gonna let me in)
Oh, I’ve been waiting for a lock to give
You better hurry, how you gonna let me in?
[Outro]
Oh, will you let me in?
Oh, will you let me in?
