Let the love out
LET THE LOVE OUT
An uplifting, heartfelt song inspired by Nobby’s original poetry
[Intro — gentle piano, warm morning atmosphere]
Open up the curtains, let the sunlight in,
Another day to love again, another day to begin.
I wake up feeling grateful, there’s a reason I can smile,
Sometimes happiness is simply having you here for a while.
[Verse 1]
The love inside me’s coming out today,
For one and all, for her, my friends along the way.
The Spice Girls said it, it’s the only way,
If you want me, you’ve got to meet me halfway.
Amy, Camila, the girl next door,
Life keeps opening another door.
And, mister, better sleep beside your wife,
There’s more to love than chasing through this life.
I’ve got a heart that doesn’t always fit the rules,
I’ve learnt some lessons, I’ve played the fool.
But if there’s one thing I still believe,
It’s the love we give is the love we leave.
[Pre-Chorus — music gently building]
So let the light in, let the walls come down,
There’s enough lost love in this world around.
We don’t need chains to prove we’re true,
There’s room for me, and there’s room for you.
[Chorus — full, uplifting piano and warm drums]
Let the love out, let the world feel free,
Let the person you are be the person you can be.
No more hiding, no more living in fear,
There’s a little more hope when we know someone cares.
Let the love out, let the healing begin,
We don’t have to lose for somebody else to win.
If we can learn to forgive and understand,
We can build a better world with the love in our hands.
[Verse 2 — more intimate, honest and vulnerable]
I’ve got my visions, I’ve got my dreams,
Sometimes life’s harder than it ever seems.
I’ve had words that never found their way,
And things in my heart I couldn’t quite say.
Sometimes I’m hurting, sometimes I heal,
Sometimes the hardest thing is showing what you feel.
But I won’t let the darkness tell me who I am,
I’ll keep on reaching out, doing the best I can.
And when I wake beside her, I’ll open up the day,
Thank her for the happiness she brings along the way.
No need for grand promises, no need to pretend,
Just gratitude for love, again and again.
[Pre-Chorus — piano and strings rise]
So let the light in, let the walls come down,
We can lift each other up instead of dragging people down.
We don’t have to think alike to stand together strong,
Sometimes freedom starts with knowing we belong.
[Chorus — bigger, hopeful and singable]
Let the love out, let the world feel free,
Let the person you are be the person you can be.
No more hiding, no more living in fear,
There’s a little more hope when we know someone cares.
Let the love out, let the healing begin,
We don’t have to lose for somebody else to win.
If we can learn to forgive and understand,
We can build a better world with the love in our hands.
[Bridge — stripped back to piano and voice]
Heal all my women, heal all our hearts,
Let kindness be the place where a better world starts.
No one owns the sunlight, no one owns the sky,
We’re all just looking for a reason to try.
And if you see me smiling, know the feeling is real,
There’s a freedom in loving, there’s a freedom to heal.
I don’t need to be perfect, I just need to be true,
And the world becomes a little brighter when I share my love with you.
[Final Chorus — warm, powerful, choir harmonies]
Let the love out, let the whole world see,
We’re all deserving of a little dignity.
No more hiding, let the old fears disappear,
There’s a better tomorrow when we learn to care.
Let the love out, let the healing begin,
There’s enough love for all of us to win.
We can stand as ourselves, let our hearts understand,
And build a better world with the love in our hands.
[Outro — gentle piano, fading into warmth]
Open up the curtains, let the morning shine,
I’m grateful for your love, and I’m grateful you’re mine.
If tomorrow brings
