Someone I know is staring at me And when I look into her eyes I see a girl that I used to be I hardly recognise Cos in the space of a year Ive watched the old me disappear All of the things I once held precious Just dont mean anything anymore Cos suddenly You came, and changed the way I feel No one could love you more Because you came and turned my life around No one could take your place Ive never felt good with permanent things Now I dont want anything to change You cant imagine the joy you bring My life wont be the same And Ill be there when you call Ill pick you up if you should fall Cos I have never felt such inspiration Nobody else ever gave me more because You came, and changed the way I feel No one could love you more Because you came and turned my life around No one could take your place I watch you sleep in the still of the night You look so pretty when you dream So many people just go through life Holding back, they dont say what they mean But its easy for me Since you came No one could love you more Because you came and turned my life around No one could take your place You came, and changed the way I feel No one could love you more Because you came and turned my life around No one could take your place

When I find myself in times of trouble, mother Mary comes to me, speaking words of wisdom, let it be. And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me, speaking words of wisdom, let it be. Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be. Whisper words of wisdom, let it be. And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be. For though they may be parted there is still a chance that they will see, there will be an answer. let it be. Let it be, let it be, ..... And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light, that shines on me, shine until tomorrow, let it be. I wake up to the sound of music, mother Mary comes to me, speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

Nel 1981 il suo primo singolo, Kids in America, raggiunge il secondo posto delle classifiche inglesi e vende 2,5 milioni di copie nel mondo, un ottimo lancio per l'album di esordio, intitolato semplicemente Kim Wilde. Nel 1984 passa alla MCA e si impone nel panorama pop internazionale pubblicando molti album, tra cui sono da ricordare Another Step (1986) e Close (1988), oltre a numerosi singoli di successo. Fu tuttavia grazie ad un rifacimento di un brano di Diana Ross & The Supremes, You Keep Me Hangin'On, che nel 1986 raggiunse la vetta delle classifiche americane.
