And when they left, it makes me high
They don't know things, they don't hold hands
To take a trip ten thousand miles before they fly
And I hope they remember this bond we have together
Maybe I needed this time to be reminded for myself
When the shows are over, don't know where to go
They were raised in Michigan
And oh, they love to sing
These friends of mine, they're from New York
In Philadelphia at Christmas time
How I hope that they discover the joy that they bring
These friends of mine, they feel alone
How I hope they discover the joy that they bring
Oh, they love to sing, they sure love to sing
They question those, wonder why they try
But who they are and how they're made
They may be there, hope you find your way
They guard their hearts the best they can
And I hope they remember this bond we have together
And when the show is over
Maybe I needed this time to be reminded for myself
These friends of mine, they have wife's
They work hard to love and write
And when the show is over
