Lyrics

When I find myself in times of trouble

Reflecting on challenging times

Mother Mary comes to me

Turning to Mother Mary for comfort

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

Mother Mary advises to let things be, offering wisdom

And in my hour of darkness

In moments of darkness


She is standing right in front of me

Mother Mary is a supportive presence

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

Reiterating the advice to let things be with wisdom

Let it be, let it be

Emphasizing the message to let things be

Let it be, let it be

-

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

-

And when the broken hearted people

Referencing broken-hearted people

Living in the world agree

Belief that agreement among people leads to an answer

There will be an answer, let it be

Assurance that there will be an answer, let it be

For though they may be parted

Despite being separated


There is still a chance that they will see

Hope that there is a chance for understanding

There will be an answer, let it be

Repeating the idea that there will be an answer, let it be

Let it be, let it be

-

Let it be, let it be

-

Yeah there will be an answer, let it be

-

Let it be, let it be

Continuing to emphasize the message to let it be

Let it be, let it be

-

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

-

Let it be, let it be

Reiteration of letting it be and wisdom

Ah let it be, yeah let it be

-

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

-

And when the night is cloudy

When facing challenges at night


There is still a light that shines on me

Belief in a guiding light despite difficulties

Shine on until tomorrow, let it be

Shine on until tomorrow, emphasizing endurance

I wake up to the sound of music,

Waking up to Mother Mary's wisdom, letting it be

Mother Mary comes to me

-

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

-

Yeah let it be, let it be

Repeating the theme of letting it be with the promise of an answer

Let it be, yeah let it be

-

Oh there will be an answer, let it be

-

Let it be, let it be

Continued emphasis on letting it be with the assurance of an answer

Let it be, yeah let it be

-

Oh there will be an answer, let it be

-

Let it be, let it be

Final repetition of the message to let it be with wisdom

Ah let it be, yeah let it be

-

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
