Let There Be Love

King Crimson · Other Songs - King Crimson

Let there be you,

Let there be me.

Let there be oysters

Under the sea.

Let there be wind,

An occassional rain.

Chile con carne,

Sparkling champagne --

Let there be birds

To sing in the trees,

Someone to bless me

Whenever i sneeze.

Let there be cuckoos,

A lark and a dove,

But first of all, please --

Let there be love.

~interlude~

Let there be cuckoos,

A lark and a dove,

But first of all, please --

Let there be love...

Hmmm umm...love

Hmmm umm...love

Let there be love.
