Somehow, someone has hurt you again
And said things and done things you don't understand
You don't understand
It's easy, just to think of your pride
So easy, to get angry inside
But let your first thought
Let your very first thought be love
Let your first thought
Let your very first thought be love, be love
Let it be love
Some people go looking for trouble to start
Oh but those people are hiding a lonely heart
They've got lonely hearts
So listen, listen to their silent cries
And touch them with a warmth in your eyes
And let your first thought
Let your very first thought be love
Let your first thought
Let your very first thought be love, be love
The Master showed us what to do time and time again
A gentle word of love can warm the heart of any man
So let your first thought
Let your very first thought be love
Let your first thought
Let your very first thought be love, be love
Let ‘em be love, be love
Let ‘em be love
