On a night like any other night Maybe raining maybe clear
Devilish whispers the usual incantations Just loud enough for me to hear
And the world looks so delightful Through the wind and pouring rain
The storms waves keep on rising (and) Calling out my name
And I’m up against your window My face pressed to the glass
Please let me in Please let me in
Sail away on a sea of foolish dreams Pay the price and lose it all forever
Put your life in the hands of others’ schemes Take the dive it’s now or never
My thoughts now so insightful Too late to ease the pain
The crying of the children The innocent the slain
And I’m up against your window My face pressed to the glass
Please let me in Please let me in
As we ran from the fire to the water Left the guns for straining seams
See the ships on the horizon Do they see me do they see me
On this night like any other night Maybe raining maybe clear
In a world exploding is any heart open Can you hear us
Can you hear
My thoughts now so insightful Too late to ease the pain
The crying of the children The innocent the slain
And I’m up against your window My face pressed to the glass
Please let me in Please let me in
Yes I’m up against your window My face pressed to the glass
Please let me in Please let me in
