Lyrics John Denver

John Denver

What One Man Can Do

I suppose that there are those

Who’ll say he had it easy

Had it made in fact

Before he’d even begun

But they don’t know the things I know

I was always with him

It may sound strange

We were more than friends

It’s hard to tell the truth

When no one wants to listen

When no one really cares

What’s going on

And it’s hard to stand alone

When you need someone beside you

Your spirt, your faith

Must be strong

What one man can do is dream

What one man can do is love

What one man can do is change the world

And make it young again

Here you see what one man can do

As shaded as his eyes might be

That’s how bright his mind is

That’s how strong his love

For you and me

A friend to all the universe

Grandfather of the future

Everything I would like to be

What one man can do is dream

What one man can do is love

What one man can do is change the world

And make it new again

Here you see what one man can do

What one man can do is dream

What one man can do is love

What one man can do is change the world

And make it work again

Here you see what one man can do
