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...
