Let It Be



The festive season is almost upon us and it's only a matter of days before the celebrations can truly begin. The night air is decorated by twinkling fairy lights, that soften the frosty footpath, while children count their sleeps until Santa shimmies down their chimney. Amid all this 'festive cheer' I've decided  to try something a little different... Below, I've created a poem from a collection of song lyrics.

Let It Be

I want you to lead me, take me somewhere... 
Don't want to live in a dream one more day.
So if I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me?
Somewhere weakness is our strength and I'll die searching for it,
You may say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one.

I will follow you, will you follow me?
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you, will you stay with me?

Smile like you mean it cause you've got a smile that could
Light up this whole town.
Every little thing is gonna be alright 
You're my world my heart my soul.

Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones,
So look at the stars, see how they shine for you
It's like a million little stars spelling out your name,
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

You're dangerous cause you're honest,
 you're dangerous cause
You don't know what you want.
But we learned more from a three minute record 
Than we ever learned in school.
We are all human, and it's time to prove it.

Keep on dreaming even if it breaks your heart I know that 
You brought out the best in me, a part of me I'd never seen,
You took my soul and wiped it clean, our love was made for movie screens.

So I walk this street on the boulevard of broken dreams
And I'm never changing who I am

All you need is love, love. Love is all you need...
