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...
