Song For Michael

(álbum: Home Grown - 1971)

Comes on like a flash of light
Filling my life with joy
He takes me to another time
When I was a little boy
I see in him a hopeful man
In an age where souls can fly
We can't look in each other's eyes
And simply just say, "Hi"

I just want to be his friend
Help him get his start
If I can teach him that God is love
I know I've done my part
I want him to see love everywhere
Know he's part of a plan
I want him to see God everywhere
But mostly in his fellow men

Oh, Michael
I wanna fly with you
Your time is here at last
The sun is shining through
Whoa, Michael
I wanna fly with you
Your time is here now
The sun is shining through

(Michael, Michael
Michael, my son)

I just want to be his friend
Help him get his start
If I can teach him that God is love
I know I've done my part
I want him to see love everywhere
Know he's part of a plan
I want him to see God everywhere
Mostly in his fellow men

Oh, Michael
I wanna fly with you
Your time is here at last
The sun is shining through
Whoa, Michael
I wanna fly with you
Your time is here now
The sun is shining through
Oh, Michael
I wanna fly with you
Your time is here at last
The sun is shining through
Yeah, Michael
I wanna fly with you
Your time is here now
The sun is shining through
