Lyrics
Just before the Big Bang
I closed my eyes so tight
And I cried for the darkness
And prayed for the light
And then I felt a breath of wind
Like blowing candles across the world
And this was the last thing I heard:
Let there be beauty, after all
Let there be someone to pick up
When I make my call
Let there be mornings
We never dreamed of
And this time
Let there be love
We took it all as a given
And then we wanted even more
But the richest men who’ve ever lived
Will not outlive the poor
And now there’s dust on the horizon
And fear in every heart
And a liar trying to tear us all apart
But let there be beauty, after all
Let there be someone to pick up
When I make my call
Let there be mornings
We never dreamed of
And this time…
Let there be
Let there be beauty, after all
Let there be someone to pick up
When I make my call
Let there be mornings
We never dreamed of
And this time
Let there be love
I closed my eyes so tight
And I cried for the darkness
And prayed for the light
And then I felt a breath of wind
Like blowing candles across the world
And this was the last thing I heard:
Let there be beauty, after all
Let there be someone to pick up
When I make my call
Let there be mornings
We never dreamed of
And this time
Let there be love
We took it all as a given
And then we wanted even more
But the richest men who’ve ever lived
Will not outlive the poor
And now there’s dust on the horizon
And fear in every heart
And a liar trying to tear us all apart
But let there be beauty, after all
Let there be someone to pick up
When I make my call
Let there be mornings
We never dreamed of
And this time…
Let there be
Let there be beauty, after all
Let there be someone to pick up
When I make my call
Let there be mornings
We never dreamed of
And this time
Let there be love
