Lyrics
CAN YOU REACH MY FRIEND
I got a call from an old friend
We laughed about how we had changed
But I could tell things weren’t going as well as he claimed
He tried to hide his feelings, but they only gave him away
The longer I listened, the more I kept wishing I knew the right words to say
Can you reach my friend
You’re the only one who can
Lord, I know you love him
Make him understand
Can you reach my friend
Bring his searching to an end
Help him give his heart to you
We talked for more than an hour and I smiled when he mentioned your name
I said that I knew you and told him the difference you’d made
He never thought he would need you, but maybe he’s changing his mind
As we said good-bye, Lord, I told him that I had found something he’d like to find
Can you reach my friend
You’re the only one who can
Lord, I know you love him
Make him understand
Can you reach my friend
Bring his searching to an end
Help him give his heart
‘Cause maybe he’s ready tonight, Lord
He said that he might need to call on you
Oh, an you reach my friend
You’re the only one who can
Lord, I know you love him
Make him understand
Can you reach my friend
Bring his searching to an end
Help him give his heart to
Help him give his heart to
Help him give his heart to you
