"Two Old Friends" lyrics

"Two Old Friends"

The preacher went up to the Golden Gate and met God there
With the glow of love in his flowing hair
I'm dreaming of a time when love and music is everywhere
Can you see that time coming?

No, my son that time has gone, there's things to do
The world has changed since I first met you
Back when The Band played Rock of Ages in their prime
And the old juke joint was rocking

Oh Lord, there's so much hate
In a world where we're from another place
Show me how to be like you
See no evil, hear no evil
Feel no evil
In my heart, in my heart, in my aching heart
In my heart, in my heart, in my beating heart (Feel no evil)
In my heart, in my heart, in my old black heart (Fear no evil)

Sky had turned a lot of shades of gray as they walked on
And a gentle rain fell down on them
They found faith in the way things are and the way things change
And they said goodbye like two old friends

Take me up to the mountains high
Or a building top where the spirits fly
Show me how to be like you
See no evil, feel no evil
Fear no evil
In my heart, in my heart, in my aching heart
In my heart, in my heart, in my old black heart (Feel no evil)
In my heart, in my heart, in my beating heart (Fear no evil)

Oh Lord, there's so much hate
In a world where we're from another place
Show me how to live like you
See no evil, feel no evil
Feel no evil
In my heart, in my heart, in my aching heart
In my heart, in my heart, in my beating heart (Feel no evil)
In my heart, in my heart, in my old black heart (Fear no evil)
