Lyrics for Let It Happen

Don't push away these arms that long to hold you Don't deny my lips, oh, the right to touch you You can't keep on running, pretty soon you gotta stop You got to let it happen We got to let it happen Let's fall in love, love, love, love, love Look over yonder, what do I see now? I see those two little birdies looking so lovely They're deep in love, just like we should be Yeah, we got to let it happen We got to let it happen Let's fall in love, love, love, love, love Love can't grow if there's nobody to cultivate All this love hanging up on this vine, right now And you can't keep a good man down very long Honey, let's get together, let's get together sometime We got to let it happen We got to let it happen Let's fall in love, love, love, love, love Honey, baby, we got to let it happen Now we got to let it happen Let's get together, baby (Love, love, love, love, love) (Let it happen) (Love, love, love, love, love)
