Ben Lyrics

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
