Chorus
I see love from a distance
Coming but slowly
I know it's gonna last forever
I feel us coming closer, closer and closer
It's the time we get together

I know you done a lot of wrongs
But I'm willing to forgive
No one has the right to decide
How the other man should live
Sometimes we should stop and count to ten
Before we make each other hurt
'Cause later on you realize
It really had no worth

Chorus (repeat)

Mama she's taught us for so long
With the right, the fool we teach
And the wisdom in her eyes
Kept me safe through all the years
Made me grow to understand
That there's still good folks around
And to keep this in your hearts
Just to be on solid ground

Chorus...
