Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Let there be you, let there be me
Let there be oysters under the sea
Let there be wind, an occasional rain
Chili con carne, sparkling champagne
[Verse 2]
Let there be birds to sing in the trees
Someone to bless me whenever I sneeze
Let there be cuckoos, a lark, and a dove
But, first of all, please let there be love
[Verse 3]
Let there be cuckoos, a lark, and a dove
But, first of all, please let there be love
Mmm, love
Ooh, love
Let there be love
