Love is but a song to 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 And you may not know why Come on people now Smile on each other Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now Some will come and some may go And 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 Come on people now Smile on each other Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now Come on people now Smile on each other Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now Come on people now Smile on each other Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now If you hear the song I sing You will understand (listen) You hold the key to love and fear All in your trembling hands Just one key unlocks them both It's there at your command Come on people now Smile on each other Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now Come on people now Smile on each other Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now, right now, right now
