Song for a Friend

When you sit and wonder

Why things have gone so wrong

And you wish someone would tell us

Where our friend has gone

Look then to the hills

When there's courage in the wind

And in the face of freedom

And those who look to him

And search within the heart

Of every young man with a song

Then I think we'll know

Where our friend has gone

Summer takes the winter

As the good years take the pain

There'll be laughter in the land again

But hearts won't be the same

And I know I'll remember

When a chill wind takes the sky

And speak of the years he gave us hope

For they will never die

And as we gaze at brave young men

When yesterdays grow long

Then I think we'll know

Where our friend has gone

When you sit and wonder

Why things have gone so wrong

It's then that we'll remember

Where our friend has gone
