Let Now Be Now, Let Love Be Love

[Verse 1]
I think I found the answer for the troubles of our days
It's clinging to some old outdated ways
So let us come together and do what must be done
Let the world's cry for help reach everyone

[Chorus]
Oh, let now be now, let love be love
Tell me how it's gonna be, not how it was
Go shake a person's hand, give the world your smile
And for your fellow man, be willing to walk a mile

[Verse 2]
It's a long way through the darkness, but if we can find the sun
The light will show the way for everyone
And if we keep on climbing, we'll all turn it around
I know a better day will soon be found

[Chorus]
Oh-oh, let now be now, let love be love
Tell me how it's gonna be, not how it was
Go shake a person's hand, give the world your smile
And for your fellow man, be willing to walk a mile

[Bridge]
Ooh-hoo

And when they tell our story, let's hope our children say
"I'm glad for us they found a better way"

[Chorus]
Let now be now, let love be love
Tell me how it's gonna be, not how it was
Go shake a person's hand, give the world your smile
And for your fellow man, be willing to walk a mile
Let now be now, let love be love
Tell me how it's gonna be, tell me not how it was
Go shake a person's hand, give the world your smile
And for your fellow man, be willing to walk a mile
Let now be now, let love be love (Let love be love)
Tell me how it's gonna be, not how it was
(I don't wanna know how it was)
Go shake a person's hand, give the world your smile
And for your fellow man, be willing to walk a mile

[Outro]
Let now be now, let love be love
