Hoping for a little piece of heaven
Hope will get you nowhere when you're clutchin' your weapon
The pain becomes the present
and the heart becomes a habit
while the love is right here waiting
so reach out and grab it
and I know it's hard when you've been broken
to finally let it go
and open your mind
but the good, it ain't ever gonna happen
if you keep on tryin' to put up a fight
so I hope you're ready to learn
we could find a new way to burn
you know we gotta keep on livin'
you know we gotta keep believin'
but now you gotta let
you know you gotta let the love in
losin' direction on a one-way road
gettin' fed up with having nowhere to go
and it seems it's getting harder
to finally find a partner in this game
that we all hate to play
and I know it's hard when you've been broken
to finally let it go
and open your mind
but the good, it ain't ever gonna happen
if you keep on tryin' to put up a fight
But I hope you're ready to learn
we could find a new way to burn
you know we gotta keep on livin'
you know we gotta keep believin'
but now you gotta let,
you know you gotta let the love in
Let the love in
Let the love in
Lettin' the love in
Lettin' the love in
'cause I can't seem to get my head around the fact that you'd be afraid
of somebody steppin' up and treating you the right way
but if we hesitate, it's only gonna complicate
the reasons that we feel like this
we'll never catch a break
the thought of you havin' a heart of stone
walkin' the world alone
you should never deal with all the things you condone
there will come a day when we'll be reprimanded
and nobody wants to face their love life empty-handed
so tell me
what have I gotta do to to get you to cave
and ride the wave
so you can let me in
to wipe up the stain
tappin' at your window pane
you got everything to gain
so get out of your brain
and recognize this is the right way
the right way
Let the love in
Let the love in
we gotta let the love in
Lettin' the love in
you better let the love in
