| 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
 | 
| 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?
 | 
| 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? |
