Let there be love, so I can be loved by you 
In Paradise Avenue 
Let there be life, so everyone lives to love 
Let it happen to me and you 

I am a man, so take me for what I am 
I`ll never have everything, but let there be love 
Let there be love, let there be love 

I can be nothing, I can be something 
I`ve got to give you my life 
I`m tired of living without your giving 
I`ve got to get you for my wife 

Feeling`s getting stronger 
Can`t hold on much longer 
I never begged, but I`m begging now 

Let there be love, so I can be loved by you 
on Paradise Avenue, oh yo 
Let there be life, so we can live to love 
And let it be both of us 

I am a man, so take me for what I am 
I`ll never have everything, but let there be love 
Let there be love, let there be love
