Let It Be
Embracing Wisdom in Times of Trouble: Let It Be by Joe Cocker
Lyrics
When I find myself in times of trouble
Expressing a personal experience of facing difficulties.
Mother Mary comes to me
Referring to Mother Mary as a source of comfort and guidance.
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Attributing words of wisdom from Mother Mary, suggesting acceptance and patience (let it be).
And in my hour of darkness
Describing a challenging time, possibly metaphorical darkness or hardship.
She is standing right in front of me
Emphasizing the presence of Mother Mary during difficult times.
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Reiterating the comforting words of wisdom, advising to let things be.
Let it be, let it be.
Stating the central theme - the importance of letting things be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
Encouraging the reception of wise counsel in a gentle manner.
And when the broken hearted people
Referring to people who are heartbroken or distressed.
Living in the world agree,
Suggesting that even in a troubled world, there can be agreement or unity.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Asserting that there is a solution or resolution – to let things be.
For though they may be parted there is
Recognizing the possibility of physical separation but hinting at hope for reunion.
Still a chance that they will see
Expressing optimism that there's still a chance for understanding.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Repeating the idea that there will be a solution - letting it be.
Let it be, let it be. Yeah
Reinforcing the theme, expressing confidence in the resolution.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Reiterating the belief in finding answers through acceptance.
And when the night is cloudy,
Describing a metaphorical cloudy or uncertain period in life.
There is still a light that shines on me,
Highlighting the presence of a guiding light even in difficult times.
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be.
Encouraging perseverance with the assurance that things will improve – let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music
Waking up to the positive influence of music as a source of comfort.
Mother Mary comes to me
Returning to the image of Mother Mary offering words of wisdom.
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Reiterating the advice to let things be, even in the face of challenges.
Let it be, let it be.
Repeating the central theme of accepting and facing life's challenges with patience.
There will be an answer, let it be.
Reaffirming the belief that there is an answer or resolution to difficulties.
Let it be, let it be,
Restating the theme, emphasizing the importance of letting things be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
Closing with a gentle reminder to heed words of wisdom and let things be.
