love is but a song we sing
and fear's the way we die
you can make the mountains ring
or make the angels cry

though the bird is on the wing
you may not know why
come on people now
smile on your brother
everybody get together
try to love one another right now
some may come and some may go
we will surely pass
when the one that left us here
returns for us at last
we are but a moment's sunlight
fading in the grass yeah
come on people now
smile on your brother
everybody get together
try to love one another right now
come on people now
smile on your brother
everybody get together
try to love one another right now
if you hear the song we sing
you will understand
you hold the key to love and fear
all in your trembling hand
just one key unlocks them both
it's there at your command
come on people now
smile on your brother
everybody get together
try to love one another right now
come on people now
smile on your brother
everybody get together
try to love one another right now
try to love one another right now
try to love one another right now
