Just let me in,

I'll sit with you on the ground,

Until your heart is on the mend;

I'll be your friend,

I won't let you drown,

Just let me in;

And until then,

I won't make a sound,

Until your heart is on the mend.

Tell me when,

And I'll be around,

Just let me in;

I have an ear to lend,

Whenever you're feelin' down,

Until your heart is on the mend,

And you're wearin' a silly grin,

No longer lost, but found.

Just let me in,

Until your heart is on the mend.
