SONG FOR A FRIEND

This is a song for you, old friend,
I hope we make it in the end,
I hope all you believe in will come to pass,
An' your vision of love comes true at last.

I hope the sun will come shinin' through,
An' when it does, may it shine on you,
Because you've always said that the day will come
When the sun will shine on everyone.

I hope that peace comes to calm our fears,
I hope it lasts for a thousand years,
Because you've always seen what I seldom can,
That little spark of God in every man.

You catch me out, you blow my mind,
You make me see where I was blind,
You're like Mother Teresa, Martin Luther King,
Or Mahatma Gandhi, you're all these things.

This is a song for you, old friend,
I know we'll make it in the end,
I know all we believe in will come to pass,
An' our vision of love will come true at last.
