Let Your Love Flow – Bellamy Brothers Lyrics

“Let Your Love Flow” is the title of a pop song written by Larry E. Williams, a former roadie for Neil Diamond, and made popular by the American country music duo The Bellamy Brothers (1976). It was offered to Neil Diamond first, but he turned it down.

This record was a crossover hit in the United States, reaching Number One on the 1976 Billboard Hot 100 charts, #2 on Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks, and #21 on Hot Country Singles. It was also an international hit, landing on the charts in the UK, Scandinavia and West Germany, where the Bellamy Brothers’ record spent five weeks at #1 followed by “Ein Bett im Kornfeld”, a German language adaptation of the song recorded by Jürgen Drews, which spent the next six weeks at #1. In 2008 the song was used in an advert in the United Kingdom for Barclaycard. Subsequently, the song re-entered the UK Singles Chart and peaked at #21. It appeared in the 1980 Tatum O’Neal film Little Darlings and the 2008 period drama Swingtown.

The song has been covered by numerous other artists, notably Joan Baez, who included it on her 1979 Honest Lullaby album. Another re-recording by the Bellamy brothers with Gölä is included on the album The Greatest Hits Sessions.

There’s a reason for the sunshinin’ sky
And there’s a reason why I’m feelin’ so high
Must be the season when that
Love light shines all around us

So, let that feelin’ grab you deep inside
And send you reelin’ where your love can’t hide
And then go stealin’ through the
Moonlit nights with your lover

Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show and you’ll know what I mean
It’s the season

Let your love fly like a bird on a wing
And let your love bind you to all livin’ things
And let your love shine and you’ll know what I mean
That’s the reason

There’s a reason for the warm sweet nights
And there’s a reason for the candlelights
Must be the season when those
Love lights shine all around us

So, let that wonder take you into space
And lay you under its loving embrace
Just feel the thunder as it warms your face
You can’t hold back

Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show and you’ll know what I mean
It’s the season

Let your love fly like a bird on a wing
And let your love bind you to all livin’ things
And let your love shine and you’ll know what I mean
That’s the reason

Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show and you’ll know what I mean
It’s the season

Let your love fly like a bird on a wing
And let your love bind you to all livin’ things
And let your love shine and you’ll know what I mean
That’s the reason

Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow
