Hello friend, I've come a calling
Passively station, active patrol
Sliding in high noon
Like some reluctant sheriff
Not want to get involved in it all
Who stands guard for each other?
Why must we guard anything at all?
Anything at all
From the Earth's four corners, the people are calling
Forming equations, but the questions are hard
All men are brothers, killing each other
And Mother Earth is wringing in wonder
Who stands guard for each other?
Why must we guard anything at all?
Anything at all
Whirl away now
Whirl away now
Whirl away now
Whirl away
There's a cross on the road, there's a great mill turning
Some seeking answers, some are born with answers
You can hold on the blade and turn around forever
Be flung into space, into another kind of grace
Who stands guard for each other?
Why must we guard anything at all?
Anything at all
Whirl away now
Whirl away now
Whirl away now
Whirl away
Whirl away now
Whirl away now
Whirl away now
Whirl away
You can't run
Some give of the hand
Some give of their land
Some giveth their life
Laying in a field of grain
The staff of life all around you
But yet you, you will cut someone down
For their possessions
Some material thing
And our children are being blown away
Like wishes in the wind
For the sake of their coat
Or their colors or their code
Or the color of their skin
Or the name of their shoes
And the mother cries, "Why'd they take my son?"
And the father wonders, why'd they take my boy
He extended his hand, he gave of his land
He gave of his bread, he gave of his heart
Said hello friend
Hello friend
Hello friend
Hello friend
