Let Me In
Ruby Francis Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I really don't know what to call it
I don't know why you treat me like stranger
Always switching up the subject
When you know that I'm the one who's here for you
Constantly, avoiding, vulnerability
Don't know why you keep hiding from me

But you can't keep it all in

So pop the lid off the bottle
Baby pour it out for me
Out for me
We can talk to the morning
If you're not ready baby call it
Lay it out for me

Let me in
I'm here to listen to you babe
Let me in
You can tell me anything if you just
Let me in
Let me in
Let me in

Let me in
I can be your medicine
Let me in
And we can start the healing if you
Let me in
Let me in
Let me in

Honey if you need the time to think
I can give you all space
And you will find your way

But baby if you say what's on your brain
Oh I can help to take you there
To a better place

Won't you paint me up a picture
So I can get to see your point of view
And you can tell me all your secrets
That you've buried at the root of
You and I, have put in time, to break the walls
Built up in your mind
Don't know why you keep hiding from me

But you can't keep it all in
So pop the lid off the bottle
Baby pour it out for me
Out for me
We can talk to the morning
If you're not ready baby call it
Lay it out for me

Let me in
I'm here to listen to you babe
Let me in
You can tell me anything if you just
Let me in
Let me in
Let me in

Let me in
I can be your medicine
Let me in
And we can start the healing if you
Let me in
Let me in
Let me in

Honey if you need the time to think
I can give you all space
And you will find your way

But baby if you say what's on your brain

Oh I can help to take you there
To a better place
