Lyrics Let Us Now Make Love (BBC Nightride 1970) - Genesis

Please, I beg you
Hear this humble voice
Please, pale orchid flower
Music of my soul
Alone upon the windswept way
Descends the nightingale
She swoops to soothe my aching brow
Let us now make love

Please, I beg you
Hear this humble voice
Please, my emerald goddess
Wash away the wounds
Alone the pilgrim thirsts and falls
The Queen runs to his call
She stoops to soothe his aching brow
Let us now make love

(Love) Make love
(Love) Make love
(Love) Let us, let us, let us make love

(Love, love) Sweet heavenly love
(Love, love) I promise you life will be good
(Love, love) If you just step down and try
(Love, love) To be one with, so feel pride
(Let us now make love)
Let us make love till the end of time
Now and forever

Please, I beg you
Hear this humble voice
Please, dear oyster shell
Reveal your hidden pearl
Alone the deaf, the sick, the blind
Turn grimly for the knife
The prophet stoops to soothe their brow
Let us now make love

(Love) Make love
(Love) Make love
(Love) Let us, let us, let us make love

(Love, love) Sweet heavenly love
(Love, love) I promise you life will be good
(Love, love) If you just step down and try
(Love, love) To be one with, so feel pride
(Let us now make love)
Let us make love till the end of time
Now and forever

Please, I beg you
Hear this humble voice
Come, let's walk the windy roads
To find the truth
Revealed, each part has now been played
Your beauty will not fade
So cling to me, fulfil your vow
Let us now make love

(Love, love) Sweet heavenly love
(Love, love) I promise you life will be good
(Love, love) If you just step down and try
(Love, love) To be one with, so feel pride
(Let us now make love)
Let us make love till the end of time
Now and forever

Let us now make love
Till the end of time
