Let Me Wash at Your Sink Lyrics

I've been walking for four years
Haven't slept in five
I'm smelling funny
and I'm tired

I used to have a home
I used to have a bed
Got myself kicked out
didn't pay the rent
ohh ohh ohh

Let met sleep in your bedroom
Let me wash at your sink
I've learned my lessons
Let me in
Let me in

I know you like to live alone
I know you feel safe
But I'm not looking to harm you
Just want to rest

And maybe it'll work out
I'll fix up around the house
And maybe you'll prepare a meal

Let met sleep in your bedroom
Let me wash at your sink
I've learned my lessons
Let me in
Let me in!
Ohhhhhhh

Let met sleep in your bedroom
Ohhhhh
Let me wash at your sink
I've learned my lessons
Let me in
Let me in!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
