Love is but a song we sing And fear's the way we die You can make the mountains sing Or make the angels cry Though the dove is on the wing You need not know why (*) come on people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Love one another right now Some will come and some will go This will surely pass When the one who left us here Returns for us at last We are but a moment's sunlight Fading in the grass Repeat (*) If you hear the song we sing You will understand You hold the key to love and fear It's in your trembling hand One key unlocks them bothyou know It's at your command Repeat (*) Love one another right now Love one another right now
