LET IT BE

One of my first experiments with recording, this old tune has some real sound quality issues. But it’s an alright composition and the lyrics do have something quite valid and urgent to relate.

LET IT BE

A future unpleasant is foretold
The effects of mass self-will
A culture that can be bought or sold
For the grass that’s greener still

I’ve enjoyed my visit to this life
I may never hurt as some
And others may never know my strife
Life is short so let it come

I do today the best I can
I can’t get away from me
I work for peace within myself
And the rest I let it be
Let it be, let it be

A pleasant fantasy in my heart
Self-expression with a song
To get it together is an art
If I love I do no wrong

Can’t change the world, can’t change a thing
Can’t manage what the times will bring
Rise up and fall, coast through the day
And let the world go on its way

Can’t change the rules, can’t change the game
Can’t mange to remain the same
Give up the fight, set your heart free
And for the rest just let it be
Let it be, let it be
