He Who Loves

He who loves is like the man on the mountain.
He who loves stands very high,
high enough to touch a sunbeam,
close enough to light the . . .
brightest star from down below in the valley.
Just reach up.
It can be done.
Would you like to paint a rainbow?
Would you like to see what . . .
blue birds see each time they fly?

He who loves stands very high.
Every single day is a new beginning,
when it all goes wrong, start all over,
just remember love keeps the whole world spinning,
it¹s the last word in happiness.

Smile at the people who haven¹t been kind to you.
Show them what love can mean in this world.

He who loves is like the man on the mountain.
He who loves stands very high.
Anyone can touch a sunbeam.
anyone can light the . . .
brightest star up in the sky.

Every heart has wings to fly.
He who loves stands very high.
