Maybe the mornin' Will it find the sun shining Warming the eyes of your children, again Maybe the mornin' Will bring you together Makin' the whole world more beautiful then Look well at your elders Now look well at the preacher Think of the pain of those long early years Look well at your parents Now look well at the teacher See why the good times are too, too close to tears Quickly they're growing and fighting and crying Trying to understand why it should be When they love someone, it's not always easy To make us aware, to make everyone see Look well at your elders Now look well at the preacher Think of the pain of those long early years Look well at your parents Now look well at the teacher See why the good times are too, too close to tears Look well at your elders Now look well at the preacher Think of the pain of those long early years Look well at your parents Now look well at the teacher See why the good times are too, too close to tears Ooo-ooo-ooo
