Ben

Botanic gardens Where we would roam A buslin' market Your crimson coat Hiding the stain on your uniform We watch the the trains go back and forth Race you up the steps Oh Ben I heard a bird sing The morning that you left I saw a sunrise The light of an old friend The song of a new age But I hold my breath Tears on the pavement I cry for you, Ben We'd waste the summers At Regents Park Rescue to safety The lady bugs Corduroy and bubblegum Paper boats in the golden sun It's all in my head Oh Ben I heard a bird sing The morning that you left I saw a sunrise The light of an old friend The song of a new age But I hold my breath Tears on the pavement I cry for you, Ben Everyone seems to find Some kind of peace of mind But I'm stuck Retracing the steps I heard a bird sing The morning that you left I saw a sunrise The light of an old friend The song of a new age But I hold my breath Tears on the pavement I cry for you, Ben I cry for you my friend I cry for you Oh Cry for you I cry for you Oh my friend
