Different Folks

What if we had never learned to see each other's way What if saying sorry never crossed our stubborn minds Would the miles and miles apart have been enough to break The tender bond between you and I It's a shame the love we have can be so gossamer and fine That a little argument is all it takes Its a shame that it can be so hard to change each other's minds And so easy to push our friends away What would have happened if we met when I was worse What if you were how you were the way you were back then Could we still have got along could we still have been friends If we were miserable as we had been It's a good thing that I learned to love from people beyond God It's good that I learned love for different folks It's a good thing that the good book taught that rule that's spun from gold It's good that I am good for you to hold All our worries quashed, all our anger satisfied I feel all the love we have sitting by fire We laugh until we cry and then some more into the night Good god I'm happy there's a you and I It's a good thing that I learned to love from people beyond God Its good that I learned love for different folks It's a good thing that the good book taught that rule that's spun from gold It's good that I am good for you to hold It's good that I am good for you to hold
