Two Men

歌詞

two men sit and talk their life stories they're grown men sitting on their beds weeping like children one who can't even believe a word anybody tells him that man turns to his friend in desperation explain what you see right from your window pane all right says his friend of fifteen years strong cause he knows that man will never walk again I see blue birds you know what they are right well they're flying outside I see sunshine from a far hiding the rain that's in your heart I see love in their mothers' eyes children playing outside and he says now it won't be long won't be long my friend my friend my friend won't be long my friend my friend my friend oh yeah it won't be long two years passed using the same religion five minutes of a day lit a spark in that man's eyes oh to hear the joy coming from his dear friend soon he felt his time was justified but one morning the nurse who came to dress that painter found nothing but the colours of his heart and mind spread laid down across the bed on which he came accustomed he passed on in the night I see blue birds you know what they are right well they're flying outside I see sunshine from a far hiding the rain that's in your heart I see love in their mothers' eyes children playing outside and he says now it won't be long won't be long my friend my friend my friend won't be long my friend my friend my friend oh yeah all along they move him to his old friend's bedside he asked to see the view of which he spoke all he sees is a wall made of brick and all this time he didn't know his friend was blind so dear friend wherever you may be up high I thank you for the joy you gave to me all time someday soon I'll meet you on the other side and in just a week that man had closed his eyes they see blue birds you know what they are now sure they're flying some how they see sunshine from a far showing the love within their hearts they see love in their mothers eyes children playing outside and they know now they've arrived won't be long my friend my friend my friend won't be long my friend my friend my friend oh it won't be long my friend it won't be long said it won't be long won't be long I know you're looking down on me now
