Wow, your soul is a wonderland,
A child is playing hide and seek within.
She used to dream of a garage band,
So sure she'll live an easy livin'...

Freckled-nosed summers
You spent by the shore,
Even though you were forbidden,
You entered the grown-ups' door.

Played with the stones, with the leaves,
With everything you found.
Pulled many cats' tails and ears,
Gave some bones to Charlie, the hound.

When you wish you were foolin' around
With the kids on the ground,
When even your own jacket 's too big for you,
Release your childish mind.

Refr.
Let it grow
Let it shine
Let it drink
A sip of wine
Let it snow
Let it rain
Let it do
things in vain...

Let it be
A little shy
Let it laugh
Let it cry
Let it fool
Let it play
Let it fly
Let it sway

Let it grow
Let it shine
Let it drink
A sip of wine
Let it snow
Let it rain
Let it do
things in vain...

Let it be
A little shy
Let it laugh
Let it cry
Let it fool
Let it play
Let it fly
Let it sway
