There's nothing left to say when its over Could wait another day, but there?s no more So please stop coming back to the matter Let it be it will be better Untie that little string on your finger And let it swim away in the water And please resist the urge to dive under Let it be it will be better Let it be it will be better And walk on my friend walk on There is no need to linger let it go And go on my friend go on And do what you need to To get you to where you need There's nothing you can do when you tire Of things that you one loved but no longer So please don't hide the tears with your laughter Let it be it will be better Release the little bird on your shoulder It's hard now but its harder when she's older And please don't change your mind she'll go faster Let it be it will be better Let it be it will be better Hiding under the table Like I did when I was small and scared It's a ways away from places I should clearly be instead I've been busy finding places that exist inside my head Chorus
