Don't Let It Be
This one and this one and that one
Destroying all that's won
A few amongst the many
And many amongst the few
Some say all's well in Jerusalem
Some say we fell off the road again
Gentle world lost to the pendulum
Swing high (swing high)
Swing low (swing low)
Let the gentle touch return
The same song but redone
In the junkyards, in the slum
Feed the thirst that's overwhelming
And maybe, most definitely
The changeling's being born
As we speak it's being torn
From the sins of our fathers
Some say heaven is in the air that we breathe
We contain the spark of the divine when we weep
For our brothers
And break me or move me
Oh but for God's sake just allude to a slither of hope (slither of hope)
And rise just take us from these prison walls that broke us
It's the end of the road (It's the end of the road)
Or the beginning of something new
Some say there's hope amongst the worst of us
But I must be blind, my ears hurt for the endless repeats
From the dimming sun to the warring winds
Search endlessly and be free
Don't let it be
Don't, don't, don't let it be
Don't, don't
Cos it's this one and this one and that one
Grow slowly, you will see
Change amongst the many
The same song but redone
Familiar as it is
Don't let it be
Some say Hell is just a symbol of despair
In the junkyard and slums, it's the weakest that needs care
Don't let it be
Don't, don't, don't let it be
Don't let it be
Don't, don't, don't let it be
Don't let it be
Destroying all that's won
A few amongst the many
And many amongst the few
Some say all's well in Jerusalem
Some say we fell off the road again
Gentle world lost to the pendulum
Swing high (swing high)
Swing low (swing low)
Let the gentle touch return
The same song but redone
In the junkyards, in the slum
Feed the thirst that's overwhelming
And maybe, most definitely
The changeling's being born
As we speak it's being torn
From the sins of our fathers
Some say heaven is in the air that we breathe
We contain the spark of the divine when we weep
For our brothers
And break me or move me
Oh but for God's sake just allude to a slither of hope (slither of hope)
And rise just take us from these prison walls that broke us
It's the end of the road (It's the end of the road)
Or the beginning of something new
Some say there's hope amongst the worst of us
But I must be blind, my ears hurt for the endless repeats
From the dimming sun to the warring winds
Search endlessly and be free
Don't let it be
Don't, don't, don't let it be
Don't, don't
Cos it's this one and this one and that one
Grow slowly, you will see
Change amongst the many
The same song but redone
Familiar as it is
Don't let it be
Some say Hell is just a symbol of despair
In the junkyard and slums, it's the weakest that needs care
Don't let it be
Don't, don't, don't let it be
Don't let it be
Don't, don't, don't let it be
Don't let it be
