| Hey, baby
|
| Hey maybe I’m forgetting to say
|
| That I stayed with you because I wanted to
|
| And you were so very kind
|
| You listened to my troubling mind
|
| Said «Leave all that hist’ry behind
|
| And deal with life as it’s offered to you.»
|
| Hey, honey
|
| You know we’ll treat each other just fine
|
| If we make the space
|
| To have the grace of a natural scene
|
| I will listen to you
|
| You will listen to me
|
| We’ll make it up in our own time
|
| You know the next time might be your time
|
| To «love and honor», to take the bother
|
| Just to see this thing through
|
| Is that what friends are here for?
|
| Dear companion
|
| We could be in Arizona or France
|
| What will the world be like, when we see each other free of all circumstance?
|
| What difference does it make?
|
| Why don’t you take a break
|
| From whatever puts the pressure on you?
|
| Oh, listen
|
| Can you go back to before you were born?
|
| To this time and place and
|
| Having to trace who you are day after day?
|
| There must have been the light
|
| Before the stories took away your sight
|
| We’re not attached or separate in space
|
| You know the next time might be your time
|
| To «love and honor», to take the bother
|
| Just to see this thing through
|
| Is that what friends are here for?
|
| Oh, listen
|
| Can you go back to before you were born?
|
| To this time and place and
|

|
| There must have been the light
|
| Before the stories took away your sight
|
| We’re not attached or separate in space
|
| You know the next time might be your time
|
| To «love and honor», to take the bother
