I got a call from an old friend We'd laughed about How we had changed But I could tell things weren't Going as well as he claimed He tried to hide his feelings But they only gave him away The longer I listen The more I kept wishing I knew the right word to say Can you reach my friend You're the only one who can Lord, I know you love him Make him understand Can you reach my friend Bring his searching into an end Help him give his heart to you We talked for more than an hour And I smiled when he Mentioned your name I say that I knew you and told him The difference you'd make He never thought he would need you But maybe he's changing his mind As we said goodbye, lord I told him that I had found Somithing he'd like to find Can you reach my friend You're the only one who can Lord I know you love him Make him understand Can you reach my friend Bring his searching into and end Help him give his heart to you 'Cause maybe he's ready tonight Lord, he said that He might need to call on you Oh, can you reach my friend You're the only one who can Lord I know you love him Make him understand Can you reach my friend Bring his searching into and end Help him give his heart to Help him give his heart to Help him give his heart to you
