Let Love In Songtext
von Rhiannon Giddens

When I was a young girl
I heard the old folks say
You can′t love just anyone
Lock your heart away
So I learned to keep my heart
Way up on the shelf
Now I know you can't love anyone
Until you love yourself

Let love in, let love in
Let it take you to a place where you′ve never been
Let love in, let love in
You know you might never get this chance again


Now I am an older girl
And wiser I believe
I don't lock my heart away
I wear in on the sleeve
When you're brave and true in love
You gotta learn to say goodbye
You can′t live in memory
Gotta spread your wings and fly

Let love go, let love go
Let it light a path through truth through the unknown
Let love go, let love go
Set it free so it can find its way back home

Now I know who I wanna be
Now I know my heart
Now I know holdin′ on too tight
Is tearin' me apart
Lettin′ go of yesterday
Lettin' in the light
Searchin′ for a brand new way
And everything's all right

Let love in

Let love in, let love in
Let it take you to a place you′ve never been
Let love go, let love go
Set it free so it can find its way back home
