A mothers care, a babys crying
A little bittytear for the love thaty's dying
These little things we see around us everywhere

Please let them be
Please let them be

A little church with people praying
Children in the park and the games they're playing
Please don't ever, ever let them change in anyway

Please let them be
Please let them be

Just leave them alone
Leave them alone
Who knows tomorrow we may see
I don't know

No mothers care, no crying baby
The little church has gone
And there's no one praying
An empty park where once
The children used to play

Please let them be
Please let them be

Just leave them alone
Leave them alone
Who knows tomorrow we may see

No mothers care, no crying baby
The little church has gone
And there's no one praying
An empty park where once
The children used to play

Please let them be
Please let them be.
