Small Fred I Will Stand Fast This Love Sometimes people ask what is it like This love that's holding me, unfolding me Sometimes people ask what's the difference That we see in your days It's not romance if romance is a dream world It's not bliss if bliss is ignorance And if I tried to tell the truth of us The closest I'd come could be this: If for just one moment People all over the world could know this love Armies would hold their fire Soldiers would unlace their boots And play soccer on the shrouded fields Let the tanks rust where they stand Take hold of a foreign hand "Tell me of life in your native land." If for just one moment People all over the world could know this love Ancient tribes betrayed Sometimes slaver sometimes slave Would lay wreathes upon the graves And gather under a spreading tree Saying "Hear our tragedy And we will listen to you." And the bully who beats on the weaker one Would say "My God what have I done?" Has it come to this?" And the victim who bore it so long Would be strong enough to stop it And find a way to forgive If for just one moment People all over the world could know this love People on line at the bank Would whistle and yodel and dance The teller would say "Just fill in the blanks For whatever you need today" People around the block Would leave the front door unlocked And all you gotta do is knock to be welcomed When you get this close to someone There is no blaming no mistaking You know that they've been through And the courage it's constantly taking If for just one moment People all over the world could know this love. If for just one moment People all over the world could know this love. |
