about

My friend Will Jarvis asked me if I had any ideas to add to an instrumental track he was working on, and he sent me a rough mix. So I kinda wrote a song over it, lyrics and all - and that's not quite what he had in mind! So he released it as an instrumental, but allowed me to carry on creating my own song based on his.

We released this right after our wedding in 2018, and used it as the music for our wedding highlight video.

We've since punched up the track quite a bit, including Will lending orchestration and additional arrangements to the song.

lyrics

LET IT IN – Lyrics Russell Wiener

I recognize you in an instant
From a distance I can see your smiling face
So familiar yet so different
Like a whole new you is shining through your lace

Your father walks beside you
But so do ghosts and voices and
Every choice you’ve made that led you here
Your story’s is starting over
And nothing’s gonna be the same
The same ones that once held you shed their tears
So close your eyes and let it in

(Let it, let it in) for the ones that need you
(Let it, let it in) the spirits that feed you
For the ones that make you whole
Close your eyes and let it in

(Let it, let it in) for your song they’re listening
(Let it, let it in) now there’s nothing missing
It’s the silver and the gold

I gaze upon you and I’m weightless
In a haze your face is all that I can see
And everybody else is faceless
But their joyous song is just for you and me

I dance and swirl beside you
In a blur of toasting voices
And everyone else seems to disappear,
Your glass is bubbling over
You feel you finally found your way
The way opens before you, no more fear
So close your eyes and let it in

(Let it, let it in) for the ones that need you
(Let it, let it in) the spirits that feed you
For the ones that make you whole
Close your eyes and let it in

(Let it, let it in) for your song they’re listening
(Let it, let it in) now there’s nothing missing
It’s the silver and the gold

Let it in
Close your eyes and let it in
This is your song they’ll listen
Now there’s nothing missing
It’s the silver and the gold
The silver and the gold
