Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who kicked a hole in the sky so the heavens would cry over me?
Who stole the soul from the sun in a world come undone at the seams?
Let there be love
Let there be love
I hope the weather is calm as you sail up your heavenly stream
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Come on baby blue
Shake up your tired eyes
The world is waiting for you
May all your dreaming fill the empty sky
But if it makes you happy
Keep on clapping
Just remember I'll be by your side
And if you don't let go, it's gonna pass you by
Who kicked a hole in the sky so the heavens would cry over me?
Who stole the soul from the sun in a world come undone at the seams?
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
The opening lines of Oasis's song Let There Be Love aks a profound question: who created the hole in the sky which the heavens wept through? The lyrics allude to the line from Shakespeare's play 'Antony and Cleopatra' which describes how, after Antony's death, "nature weighed down this mighty ruin... the sky itself, the planets, and this centre, observe degree, prioritie and place, insistent course, they all begin to change, and swiftly followed by the sea". The lyric could be interpreted as acknowledging natural forces beyond human control like death or the environment, and the aftermath of such forces.
The chorus "Let there be love" provides a hopeful, optimistic message amidst the chaos and destruction that ensued. It is as if the singer is supplicating for peace and harmony to be restored in a world where the seams of society are breaking apart. Additionally, the lines "May all your dreaming fill the empty sky" and "Come on baby blue, shake up your tired eyes, the world is waiting for you" are an encouraging call for action, asking the listener to dream and create with vigour and energy.
Overall, the lyrics of Let There Be Love are a poignant and powerful response to the crises and turmoil that seem to be omnipresent in the world. It is a call for peace, love and action in a world where all three are sorely needed.
