Let Them Say
You say it cannot be
That you cant be with me
Because we differ in so many ways, and
Though I am just a boy
I know that you enjoy
And if you try to run away
You know Ill follow
So just allow yourself to stay
Forget tomorrow
Let them say what they want to say, baby
Ignore the ones who say its wrong to love me
Though younger I may be
Just let me set you free
I dont care what others think that love should be and
Let them see what they want to see darlin
And if Im kissin you all night, so what then
They say its scandalous
But baby, whats the fuss?
What matters most is not the world, what counts is us
You know my heart is pure
But you say youre not sure
That merely wanting doesnt make it right now
So tell me what to do
To show you what is true
Ill prove that they are wrong for that Ill fight now
And if you walk away tonight
You know Ill find you
Just remember this is right
Or Ill remind you
Let them say what they want to say, baby
The world does not control our lives, dont think so
Dont be afraid of me
Thats not reality
Look inside my heart to find just what you need, and
Let them see what they want to see, darlin
But if youre happy here with me, so what then
Each night and every day
In my arms you can stay
Cuz years are really just illusions anyway
Do you remember how my love took your breath away
And can you see the things you do to my heart
What does it matter if we dont hear what others say
And well forget their ridicule
Break the rules, so
Let them say what they want to say, baby
Ignore the ones who say its wrong to love me
Though younger I may be
You know Ill set you free
I dont care what others think that love should be and
Let them see what they want to see darlin
And if Im kissin you all night, so what then
They say its scandalous
But baby, whats the fuss?
What matters most is not their words, what counts is
Let them say what they want to say, baby
The world does not control our lives, oh no no
Dont be afraid of me
Thats not reality
Listen to your heart to find just what you need, and
Let them see what they want to see, darlin
But if youre happy here with me, dont run then
Just do the things you must
Cuz my love you can trust
What matters most is not the world, what counts is us
