If I could find a love to treasure with this heart and with these hands I could build a strong foundation in a world of shifting sands If I could show just what I've made up it'd be surprise what I can do But I need someone to help me let it be you 'Cause I ain't to find somebody who really understands The things that make the difference between a woman and a man Yeah I bet all my best intentions will never see me through If I don't find what I'm missin' let it be you Let it be you who wakes me in the morning Let it be you who lays down with me each night Side by side we can dream together Let it come true let it be you There are lessons in this life I can't learn all by myself There's beauty I can only see through the eyes of someone else There's a place I've always heard of only love can take me to But I need someone beside me let it be you Let it be you who wakes me in the morning Let it come true let it be you
