Sweet Loving Friendship Lyrics by Peter Bellamy

The Transports

0

If you look out from some high, high window
You will see the sun set beyond the town
You will see the rooks to the treetops screaming
And the wing of evening come folding down
Between the morning and the evening
Between the springtime and the winter drear
There comes a time of new beginnings
When sweet loving friendship drives away all fear
There is many here, they know naught but sorrow
And like the beasts they live from day to day
But we can think on a bright tomorrow
Since sweet loving friendship drives all grief away
All hope in prison, it soon will smother
If none will with you your sorrow share
But we cling fast to one each other
And sweet loving friendship banishes despair
Just like the sailor when his ship makes harbour
Just like the traveller who finds an inn
What care they if the wind blows harder
When they be safe and warm within
No lonely convict can resist the darkness
Just as no sailor can the driving rain
But find a comrade for to share your fastness
And sweet loving friendship will ease your pain
So if you look out from some high, high window
And see the sun set beyond the sky
You need not mourn at the coming shadow
If some loving friend is standing nigh
