[Verse 1]
If I look to my left, it's beside me
And if I look straight ahead, it's before me
But if I close my eyes, I may never see you
[Chorus 1]
What it is, what it is, what it is, what it is
What it is, what it is, what it is
[Verse 2]
When you think that you right, you wrong
And oh, when you think you're so big, you're so small
But if you close your ear, you may never hear
[Chorus 1]
What it is, what it is, what it is, what it is
What it is, what it is, what it is
[Verse 3]
Look right now while you have a chance
(You have the tender look)
Look right now while you have a chance
(You have the tender look)
Look right now while you have a chance
You won't find it in the dictionary
Oh, but you can't blame, no you can't blame it on yoursеlf
But if you won't, somebody sure will
[Chorus 2]
Let it livе, let it live, let it live, let it live
Let it live, what it is, let it live
Let it live, what it is, let it live
[Outro]
Let it live, let it live, what it is
Let it live
